Zoo with the Stampers

We were able to take advantage of the homeschool program at the Columbus Zoo. We participated last year with the Stamper family so Carla asked if there was space for my kids and yes there was. So we headed over to the zoo for our 2:00p class. (The things you miss!)  My kids had a great time. For two reasons - 1. Love hanging with the Stampers - 2. Love being at the Columbus Zoo. While the zoo is a small zoo it packs a punch. In the 5 plus years that we have lived here the zoo has gone through many expansions and remodels but all worth it. They are currently undergoing a Polar bear/Arctic area! Can't wait! We love the Polar Bears! If you are ever in the Columbus area and have some free time, I can't stress enough that you need to visit this zoo. Sooooooo worth it!
Afterwards we were able to have some play time together at our home! Fun, Fun, Fun!!!
And more fun occurred for my kiddos as Suzanne (remember I said she was wonderful) invited all my kids to sleep over her house! The older two made it. The youngest, yea, not so much. He cried, so she did not feel comfortable keeping him. But before he went home he did have a big bowl of ice cream. (You ROCK, Mrs. Best)!
On another note, my wonderfully, fabulous, amazing husband of 13 years decided to come in for only 16 hours as we are dealing with house issues! Plus, he missed me! ;) He did not arrive in the airport until 12:15 am. Please continue to pray for us with the house as we are really trying to make the correct decisions to get this beast sold. 

Kids love to have their picture taken on the sculptures and I love taking pictures of the kids.  Here we have Stephen, Thomas, Joshua, Abigail, Kyle, Casey, and Tana!

Inside the reptile house as the zoo was about "Venomous and Poisonous Creatures."

Casey and Stephen!  It is great that they both enjoy each others company.  What a blessing!
Our kids sat down front so they got to go up and see the different animals.  There were scorpions, spiders, etc.
The entire row is our kids - The Stampers and The Sheas!!!
