Road trip! Momma (with kids in tow) Style!

About a month and a half ago (yes, I am behind), my fantastic friend Amanda invited Aspen and I to join her and her boys on a trek up to Portland. No husbands, lots of active kiddos, two nights in a hotel room, a bunch of chat time, and a ton of fun. The main highlight of our trip was going to the zoo!



Same side snoozers.




Aspen had a bit of trouble settling down for sleeping, because her "fwends" were much more interesting :/



Aspen had to hold J's hand nearly the entire time at the zoo, he was very sweet to oblige.




Little birdies in a nest.




Daddy would have liked this exhibit.

This cracked me up, J was being a "lazy farmer."

Aspen's "fwends."

A grumpy cowgirl.

My cutie pie.

Aspen LOVED the hippos. "Hippo swimming."

The zebra was beautiful.

Aspen and mommy.

Pretty baby.

She may have loved this part more than the hippos!

Totally OUT!
