Labor Day Weekend!!

Our Labor Day weekend was wonderful! We spent LOTS of time together as a family and did lots of fun things... Saturday morning/afternoon we headed to the zoo and packed a picnic lunch...
Riding in the log ride in the Austrailian part of the zoo... He loved it!!

Picnic lunch at the zoo....
Then on Sunday, we drove to the Indiana Dunes State Park and spent the day with Drew's parents and Rob's family... Brad and Charna have been married 40 years and this is what we decided to do to celebrate their anniversary.... The weather was great and we all had so much fun in the sand!!

Evan and Ty playing in the sand :)

More sand fun....

Cousins :)

One of the BIG hills that we climbed! Believe it or not, Evan climbed up most of this himself... We kept asking him if he wanted to be carried and he kept saying- "All by self".... Finally, he did let Drew carry him....

Climbing.... It was a workout for sure!

Buddies :)

Running down the hill....

More playing in the water...

Our family :)

Can you tell he's having fun??

Checking out the water with Grandma and Grandpa...

Happy boy :)

On Labor Day, Drew was in a golf outing, so Evan and I spent most of the day with my family.... We drove over to the Black Pine Animal Park in Albion... The weather wasn't too great, but as it turned out we got a special tour because we were practically the only people there...

Inside the reptile house- trying to figure it all out...

Big turtle!

Watching the turtles and iguanas....

The female lion up close and personal....

One of the volunteers actually took us inside the "cat house" and we got to see all the tigers and other big cats this close... It was soo neat!!
Petting zoo animals- the miniature horse was so cute!
