Yesterday Jeremy was off due to the Fourth landing on a Sunday. We decided to take a little road trip and test out our mini van. After breakfast we packed easily in the van and headed up to South Bend for half the day. On the way up the kids watched "Cars" on the DVD screen. We went to the
Potawatomi Zoo and then picked up Jeremy's Gram (95) for a fun lunch at
McDonald's. The zoo had a few animals we don't have at the Fort Wayne one (Bison, Alpaca, White Tiger,
Prairie dogs.) Unlike on past zoo trips Aaron rode in the stroller and Sammie was the one walking around everywhere. We enjoyed our time but were ready to leave after seeing all the animals. the kids were hot and hungry.
We picked up Gram and the kids both turned on their charm! Aaron was excited about sitting next to Gram and telling her about cars. Sammie was Gram's new best friend once she started feeding her french fries.
We headed home around 1:30 and the kids slept most of the way home. It was so hot when we got home we took a quick dip in my parents pool to cool off before calling it quits for the day.
