Sonic comes to visit

I'm not sure why I don't have more pictures of this, but we got the great honor of bringing home the kindergarten pet - Sonic! Sonic is a cute little mouse, but phew, he really is stinky. Of course we had to keep him away from the kitties, so he didn't come out to play a lot, but after a while the cats seem to lose interest in him anyways. This weekend was actually 3 days long, so on Monday when the kids went over to Jennifer's house for a playday while I went for a long run, Sonic got to go too. Ironically, Zachary enjoyed the thought of having the mouse at our house, but he didn't want to hold him and by Monday Sonic had stayed in his bedroom almost all day.

Lunch at 577 Foundation

Since Alan had a long run to do, we decided to go have a picnic lunch over at the 577 Foundation. It was a beautiful day. The 577 Foundation is such a peaceful place. It's quickly becoming our favorite little santuary.

We had plenty of apples from our trip to the orchard last month.

The kids played around in the Zen garden.

Of course we stopped over at the log cabin too, and talked about all of the great things we have nowadays. Like indoor plumbing! haha
