The zoo, drums and picnics

Today, we went to the zoo, here in town with the grandparents! We saw all sorts of animals! Some of them we just heard (like the big male lion's roar!)

Then we spent most of the rest of the day finding and reviewing travel trailers, trucks and our credit. We were all cranky and stressed from that adventure so before dinner we stopped if to see and chat with my husband's brother, sister-in-law and a Luna cousin. We ended up spending more time there then we thought as the cousins disappeared pretty quick and had no problems but lots of fun, a good break before the trial and error of finding the
