K-zoo!


We got to make a weekend escape to exciting Kalamazoo!
It may not be as exotic as Akron, Ohio (I know you're all amazed by our adventures), but it is beautiful!
And some of our favorite people happen to live there!!!

We made a stop at a 'safari' park in K-zoo
This guy reminded me of Peter Pan...

On a bear.
Notice the camouflaged 'safari' bus in the background.
I'm sure we blended right in with the natural surroundings. 

Sophia, Finn, and Henry!
They were right back at it, like they never skipped a beat.

Finn- the animal tamer.

Sophia feeding the giraffe- she LOVED it.

Eek! Baby zebra!
Close encounters of the baby kind.

We ate some delicious ice cream along this peaceful river.
If you notice the not-so-peaceful kids racing across the bridge in a blur.
Yep. Ice cream.

Finn and Sophia...

Just too cute!

Even Petra loved hanging out around the fireplace!

A little fishing at pond in their backyard (basically).
Sophia caught her first fish- so proud!
You can barely see it- haha

Rick didn't fare much better.

Henry ruled the day!

So beautiful here.

Daddy teaching Sophia the fine art of waiting for fish.

On the trails in the forest. 

Fishin' buddies

So much fun with these guys!

What a perfect weekend!
We're so lucky to have such awesome friends where we can play all day, and chat all night.
And play legos all through conference...
(notice that the 5 year old is the one actually watching ;)
