Tulsa Zoo with Family

Two of my sisters came down to visit the week after our area’s spring break, which was pretty much perfect.

The zoo was nice and empty, well until we came… That’s a lot of kids 😉 Perfect day for the zoo! The rainforest is beautiful. Cousin time was so much fun! So cute. We actually went to the zoo twice that week as well as going to the Gathering place twice!

We took our week off school that week which was pretty perfect and the week went by fast!

I was ready to hibernate in my house after all the fun outings!

Solo Parenting for a week

Well I have been quiet on here because when life is overwhelming stuff gets cut.

My husband went on a business trip all last week and got back Saturday so I did what I always do.

I ran around like crazy.

I don’t like to be cooped up with 5 hyper kids, I would rather see interesting things.

1st up was the Tulsa Zoo

We actually went to the zoo right from the airport and then a friend met up with us a little later to help! I have pretty great friends, so many helped us out. It was a little chilly out so my kids were happy to be in the desert exhibit. The weather did not warm up as much as I thought it would so we had some cold kids but we also had a pretty empty zoo.
Heat never seems to scare okies away but 50 degrees will.

So that is my favorite time to go to the zoo of course.

How do you cope when one parent needs to go out of town?

Do you run around like crazy also or that just me?

Last Fall at the Zoo with Friends ~Tulsa Zoo

The closer we got to our adoption date last year, the more I did not like editing photos that I could not share.

So a lot of photos were forgotten.

Including these photos I took when on a trip to the zoo with friends last fall.

Toddlers interacting is so funny.

As a mom and photographer, I always try to get pics of my mom friends with their kids.

We don’t get in enough shots.

 I am thankful for flexible friends during this journey.
