We have a little tradition of letting Manny pick every year where he wants to go for Father's Day and it never fails that he chooses something fun for the kids. So, we set off for the zoo and a day in Columbia last Sunday!  The zoo is a few hours away from us so we turned it into a day trip....

With the kids out of town last week, I've had some extra time on my hands! It's been great (and quiet!) and I've spent a lot of it reading. Stillhouse Lake and Dead Certain are my latest reads. They were great! But, they are also mystery/thriller novels and I'm ready to sink into a few more...

I found this book on our kitchen table amongst flowers and handmade cards on Mother's Day! I've had my eye on it for a while but I wanted my own copy. Something I can dig into, make marks on, dog-ear favorite pages...

Shopping is fun, right? But shopping with kids is a whole different thing!
