Went away to beat the heat!!
Last Thursday we drove up to Santa Barbara and had a blast at the zoo!! My childhood friend, Rene, and her daughter, met us at the zoo. The Santa Barbara Zoo had so many beautiful exhibits and animals!! The girls fed animals and cracked up when the pig kept oinking at them. It was hilarious!! We took a really neat train ride through the zoo. It was a great way to get a tour of the zoo.
At the end of our visit, the girls were cashing in on my promise to buy them a little something from the gift shop. Savannah picked out a little stuffed giraffe. Miranda picked out a 6 inch neon green crocodile that squeaked. Maryssa picked out a 4 inch frog the ribits and lights up when you rub its belly. She also picked out these cool rubber frog rings that light up when you press the head. Amanda picked out a cute stuffed green gecko lizard. She has been into lizards lately…
At 6pm we said our goodbye’s to Rene and her daughter Savana. We drove down to our family friend, Barbara Hobbins, who lives in Ventura. For dinner, we brought dinner for everyone and Barbara’s favorite, burritos from Chipolte. We met her boyfriend Jim. She has been keeping Scotty for us and she loves him. The girls were so excited to see Scotty. We got lots of pictures and everyone had a great time.
At about 9pm that night we drove to our friends house, Steve & Reyna. They live in Oxnard. We were up for a few house and then spent the night at their house.
What a fun and eventful day we had!!
