Fun with Grandma

A couple of weeks ago, Erika had a couple days off from school so we headed to the zoo with Grandma Parnell!  We are so lucky that my mom is now retired and lives so close to us....we do so many fun outings together.  And, I use her as my babysitter quite often...thanks Mom!
 
It was a perfect day for the zoo.  Not too chilly, not raining, but cool enough to keep most people away.  We had the place mainly to ourselves!



The Oregon Zoo has a baby elephant that is adorable!  We spent quite a bit of time watching her with her family.

And then ate elephant ears!

My favorite zoo exhibit is the lion exhibit.  Clearly, Laurel was unimpressed.  Or throwing a little fit.
 
We also spent some time at Grandma's place.  Of course, Grandma lets the kids do things that I do not let them so they take full advantage of things like playing with makeup.


Grandma got a makeover.




So did the girls!
