Wow, the weather has changed, activies are in full swing... here is a brief update Saturday Art classes are going well. Last week Joey made a windsock, this week was a magnetic picture frame, next week is something with GLITTER We finally made it to the zoo, both on Thursday and Sunday. I bought a zoo membership and Joey is enjoying it.. plus its easier on me, if we only stay a couple hrs its not a major expense. I think it was $60 for both of us for the entire year plus discounts on the classes and programs. Thursday we saw the "sting ray exhibit" and the touch pool. the Stingrays were jumping out of the pool... totally awesome. Joey also spent a good 90 mins at Harmony farm, the kids petting zoo.. Also we saw a puppet show about the animals of the desert. Today we saw a tiger in a tree, apparently a rarity... we visited Monkey island, saw the baboons, took the usual tram ride and had a picnic lunch. It was nice just to get out and walk around. The seasons have changed, we are into spring and the daily temps are into the upper 80's and lower 90's. I even got a bit of sunburn today Last weekend we made it to the puppet theater for a great show about PIRATES... www.azpuppets.org On a different topic I am now babysitting Friday nights for a wonderfully sweet 18 mos old girl. The extra cash is nice and its an easy job. I am off work for a couple weeks, im having minor surgery tomorrow... Im hoping I feel good shortly after, Joey and I have lots of fun stuff I can do while im off on leave. We can go up to Prescott, we can go to the Grand Canyon, possibly the OUT OF AFRICA ZOO. Spend a day in Tucson... The weather is nice and I want to get lots of activies in before it gets too hot... Oh yes, we are learning too. Joey is about 1/2 done with 2nd grade math and spelling. He is reading the "Poppleton" series by Cynthia Rylant. Easy reads but fun and silly... |
