Kermie and I have been wanting to take one last mini vacation as a family of 3 all summer and we finally found a weekend to go! I had been promising Ella a trip to the zoo to see all of the animals and once we got to talking about the possibility of fireworks on the river, we decided it would be best to just make a weekend of it! It was a great weekend for sure!
Ella and Kermie at the entrance of the zoo.
Showing Barbie to the monkeys!
Amazed by the seals! She is really into what makes a good swimmer lately, so she enjoyed watching these terrific swimmers!
Me in front of the dinosaur that spit on Kermie and Ella! It was hilarious and very unexpected! :)
Ella was a little unsure of the dinosaurs (aka monsters). However, she hasn't stopped talking about them since we got home!
Posing with her gooey egg and zoo hat (no paci presents) at the conclusion of our trip to the zoo. She loved it!
Checking into the hotel and full of energy somehow or another!
Taking a quick jump on the bed of course!
Ella and Kermie before dinner :)
Ella and mommy with a balloon and chocolate milkshake from a terrific dinner! We had the BEST service ever that night. Ella called our waiter her "best friend" :)
Ella and Kermie in the hot tub!
Candy laces and a wet head waiting for the fireworks to start!
Watching fireworks from the hotel room. Room service: a chocolate cake and cheesecake :) If you haven't noticed, my family is huge on sweets!
Very pretty, but she still doesn't like how loud they are... even from inside.
On our way home from a fabulous weekend get-a-way! :)
