Two Days in one!

Today is not only Mother's Day for me but it is also my 6 year Anniversary:

We woke early this morning one for Josh to take the dog on an early walk before church and two because we had a long drive to church today.  We were at Christ Memorial Lutheran Church in Malvern PA.  After church we went to a Vietnamese restaurant where we enjoyed BBQ pork and rice.  YUM!


Lunch!

I have also been married to a wonderful husband and best friend for 6 years now.  Weren't we cute on our wedding day?





I had a wonderful Mothers Day and Anniversary.  Happy Mother's Day to all of you Mom's out there!

Meet Zulu

Zulu is two years old and very sweet. He was brought to the animal rescue because his owners couldn't afford him anymore. We were able to play for awhile before we decided to take him home he was super friendly and obeyed simple commands. He loves to be outside as his previous owner had him out a lot and he seems very confused inside. Zoe isn't very happy but hopefully she will grow to like him soon.


We couldn't be more excited to have found such a loving puppy.

Trip to the Zoo

Our first trip to the zoo! The kids both loved the Reptile building, Zechariah loved the Tigers as well and Katy liked seeing Zebra's and Giraffes.  We loved playing in the Tree House too.  It was a nice break from the cool weather and the kids were able to climb through a bunch of very neat displays.

Check out a few of the pictures below.

































Coffee, The Park and Turtles

Last Saturday Josh was in a board meeting and the kids and I had nothing to do so we decided to explore the neighborhood early Saturday morning.

Our first stop was Black & Brew a local coffee/cafe.  We got coffee, a vegan granola bar, and a bagel.  YUM!  The Granola bar was actually very yummy!  We ate outside per Katy's request, and when we finished we moved to the Passyunk (PASSHH-UNK) Ave fountain where the kids tossed in a ton of pennies and I enjoyed my coffee in the sweet morning air, I'm not kidding South Philly wasn't smelly that morning.

Then we moved to Urban Jungle Garden Shop and bought some gardening supplies for home and found some really neat things we liked too.  After here we walked up to the Italian Market we got a bunch of veggies and fruits for a fraction of the price as the grocery store, and we stopped by a tiny pet store.

By then it was time for lunch and we stop by Sarcone's Deli where the kids and I got a regular turkey and cheese provolone hoagie.  Which tasted pretty awesome.  We also got the house made potato salad which both Zechariah and I loved.  We ate it at the park picnic style.  The kids ran around and came by for a bite here and there they loved that too.

On our way back home we walked back through the Market and the kids got a baby red-eared turtle.  His name is Sparky and Katy loves having her very own pet.

We had a great day!  Enjoy the pictures!
