Another day at the zoo

It started off a bit chilly in the morning. The boys were a little grumpy as we bundled them up in the stroller, but soon became much happier as we met up with our friends Zach (and David), Skylar (and Steve), Jasmine and Jordan (and Laurie and Juan)! Of course we had to visit the baby elephant again. His name is Samundra, or Sam for short, and is over 400 pounds already! At the end of the day, we got a great photo op with all the kids...check out the cheesy grins!

Lunch at the AfriCafe!

Goldwyn boys

My sweet boys

The best part of my day is coming home to my 2 sweet little boys. I love how Tristan runs to us as fast as he can, calling out "mommy" and "daddy", and how Austin's eyes light up and he starts kicking his legs excitedly in anticipation of being picked up. Seeing their faces is what I miss the most while I am at work each day. I can't help it...aren't they the cutest kids ever?

Clambake Adventure

On the rainiest day of the month, we ventured out to our friends Liz and JD's house for their annual clambake. They live out in the beautiful Mt Hood wilderness area, surrounded by privacy we can only dream of here in the Camas 'burbs. While the weather wasn't entirely cooperative, it turned out to be a lot of fun anyway... and there were lots of kids there this year for a change :)
