Brynn is almost to the end of her second and final week of the Junior Zookeeper program at the Red River Zoo. Before it started, Brynn was asking me what I thought she would be doing there. I told her that they'd probably put her to work which would include scooping poop. She suddenly wasn't as interested to attend for some reason. I told her that I actually had no idea what they'd be doing, but she had initially wanted to sign up since she loves animals so much.
Our library just opened back up, so the girls did go there this past week one day with Ryann. They were pretty excited and I think we're going to take another trip there tomorrow. So far I'm the only one in the family participating in the summer reading program. LOL. It's for adults too. I've read seven books so far this summer which is quite a bit for me.
It was this sweet buddy's birthday last week and Clara was very excited to celebrate with her. Happy 6th, Adria!
Brynn made Clara and herself some masks the other day. :-)
And a bow for Clara.
Twinning! I was laughing yesterday when they were explaining to me about 'meatball' straps on tank tops. Because, they told me, the thin straps are spaghetti straps, so they've dubbed these wider strapped tank tops "meatball" straps since spaghetti and meatballs go together. haha!
Clara was upset that riding her bike without her training wheels wasn't coming along as well as she would hope. :-(
She has had the best time! She goes from 1:00-5:00 every day. She actually has been scooping poop which she says she doesn't even mind. It's been so fun and interesting to learn about what she's doing each day. It's been a really great experience. Here are some pics that she's taken with her phone from her time there so far as well as some pics that the staff has sent the parents.
This one's my fav. So cute. :-)
The red panda is so adorable. He looks so cuddly though I'm sure he's not!
The girls had dentist appointments today so when Clara and I went to pick up Brynn, we watched this dude while we waited for her.
Dana was fixing something on the four-wheeler and "had" to take some test runs with it at 11:00 one night. So, I came along for the ride. I'm sure our neighbors were super pleased. If the constant chainsaw noises don't bother them, then I suppose the four-wheeler wouldn't either.
Brynn and I strolled around Lindenwood Park one evening. It's so huge!
This past weekend Ben came to hang out with Uncle Dana and help him with projects. They kept pretty busy and the girls had fun playing with him. We miss you already, Ben!
Brynn ordered a woodburning tool for herself and has been busy making different creations with that. It's pretty cool to see what she comes up with.
Playing cops and criminals last night. :-)
