Last weekend I got to spend some quality time with two of my best friends from high school-Kylee and Heidi, along with their families. Friday night we chatted from like 3 pm until midnight. Sometimes you just need some girl time and let me tell you, it was amazing.
We were some funny funny children back in the day (maybe still are?) and we had a ton of random adventures in high school that it was fun to reminisce and laugh about. Hey, when you don't drink or party and you live in a small area, you make your own fun. Believe me, we did. One of our other friends started an email chain this week about some of our random adventures and reliving some of the memories- and let me just tell you, I have not laughed so hard in a LONG, LONG time. I laughed so hard I had tears streaming down my face at times. I would share some memories here, but I don't want anyone to think less of me... haha, no really no one would get our inside jokes and would probably think we are rather stupid. Oh well. Another time.
Saturday, Hides, Ky, and I loaded up the families and went to the Zoo. Whoever thought that was a good idea on Memorial Day Weekend (cough. cough. Kylee. Okay, me) wasn't the most brilliant. It was packed! Oh well, it turned out to be a really fun time. The weather was perfect most of the day, which was extra great.
Here is the whole crew of us- Seth, Jayda, Kylee, Devin, (Jace in the stroller), Hallie, me, Jerika, Vance, Heidi, (Cosette in the stroller).
Fake ponies. Awesome. Also awesome were the fake dinosaurs around the park- apparently the theme this year? Some even spit water and growled at us. Rude.
Hallie is kind of scared of animals generally, but she liked most of the ones at the zoo because they are caged and kept their distance. Looks like she is about the size of a small chimp, according to this chart.
My favorite animals were the elephants, especially cute baby Zuri.
Little Miss Cosette. She is so squishy and adorable! She and Jace are about one month apart. It looks like the trend continues for us to have abnormally large children, eh?
These two are about two months apart. They were really funny to watch and to listen to. They enjoyed watching some people feed a giraffe (apparently they paid $40 to feed them a few pieces of bread. Totally not worth it if you ask me!). Jerika also loved pushing Hallie around in her stroller. Good times for two year olds!
Nothing beats good times with old friends and that weekend was much needed for me!

So fun! I'm glad you guys could get together. Too bad you didn't do the zoo on Monday. That's when we (Crouch/Chadwick clan) went and it rained a lot, but for us that was perfect since Alyssa and I are both prego and a week apart end july/beg aug. So basically it wasn't near as hot as saturday was. The zoo is awesome this year for sure.
How fun to get together with the girls. we are all growing up and having kids all over the place. How fun!
