If you all haven't figured it out yet, we have a zoo pass and this is why we have so many pictures there. However, we just have so much fun that it doesn't matter how many times that we go. We went early this morning even though it is supposed to be cooler today (94 degrees). We didn't go to see all of it because by 10:30 it was getting to hot to walk around. They have a new tiger exhibit which was awesome. Of course the zoo had all the water spraying all over so people wouldn't die of heat. The kids were soaked by the time they got to the car. So then on our way home Richard decided all the sudden to turn into a park area. We drove all they way in the back and there was a HUGE playground there. It was totally amazing. I didn't know it was there. So we let the kids play there for a little bit.

Father's Day
Our kids came back from Mom and Dad's house just a couple days before father's day. So when they saw us, Richard was attacked with cards and candy, which of course he loved. Then when we got home he opened Aaron's present to him. Aaron had made Richard a game. Dad had found the picture of it on the internet and then they made it all out of wood. It is a very nice game and a lot of fun to play. Richard really likes it and of course Aaron is so proud. Thank you dad for helping him make it! Here are some pictures of the game in action!

They are Back
Well, Richard and I are done being lonely because the kids are back. They spent 10 days at Dad and Mom's house. They had a great time. They were so excited to go fishing and just play outside in the dirt. So here are several pictures of their time at the ol homestead. Thank you mom and dad for keeping the kids. Also, Richard's surgery went very well. I had a friend stay with me all day while I was at the hospital. Tuesday we will get the update on how his arm is doing. We appreciate all the prayers everyone has given us for him. Thank you!

It is so Quiet
It has been almost a week now since our kids have been gone. They are up at Mom and Dad's house. I has been so quiet over here. We miss them a lot. However, the reason they are up there (besides just to visit Grandma and Grandpa) is because Richard is going to have surgery Monday. He is having rotator cuff surgery. So we didn't want to have to worry about the kids being at the hospital. So we have had a week of staying up late and sleeping in late (or as late as the dogs will let me). We would appreciate the prayers for Richard that everything goes well. We will pick up the kids Friday. Then Saturday the girls and I have a garden party that we are going to. It will be a lot of fun. Richard and I are going to a movie and to dinner with a couple from church today. When I was making dinner last night I actually had to cut the recipe in HALF! That is so crazy and we still had leftovers! Hope you all are having a good summer. Love, Mary
