Here Comes the Sun

This weekend was the first in a good 7 months or so where we saw 70 degrees and SUN, and we enjoyed it to the fullest! Friday night we had an impromptu deck party and grilled some brats and hotdogs for a small group of friends. It was so wonderful to sit out on the deck, adult beverage in hand. Lucy made some new friends - a couple of daughters of one of Husband's high school buddies. They played so well together and kept each other occupied so the parents could catch up.

They all had to sit on the same side of the picnic table.

Saturday, we took advantage of another impromptu opportunity. Some friends from Iowa decided to make a last-minute getaway to the Twin Cities, and we joined them at the zoo on Saturday afternoon. More girls to play with, and more glorious sunshine to enjoy.

The best we could do to get them all at once!

Love this one - these two were having quite the conversation!

Moose!

Unfortunately after this she took a tumble off the retaining wall and hurt her leg. :(

The new black bear exhibit is pretty cool!

 After all the snow lately, hopefully we are on our way to a real SPRING. Hope you all enjoyed it as much as we did!
