Recovering

Friday after work, we loaded up the car and headed north to Cincinnati where we met Brent's family for a fun filled weekend.

 

Saturday morning, we started the day off with a trip to the zoo.  I know we've only been to 3 zoos with C but this one was by far the best!  The exhibits were great, the staff was awesome and very friendly and there were several times you looked up to see an animal on a leash just walking around.

 

 

The giraffes were a favorite.

 

 

C spent some time in the goat pen feeding them, petting them and brushing them.

She also loved the train ride around the zoo.

 

Brent's favorite was seeing Todd Fraiser (Red's player) at the zoo!

 

 

Call me paparazzi.  It pays to have a good camera.  Didn't even notice me.  :)

After the zoo, we came back for a quick nap before heading to the Red's game.

 

 

The girls still looking cute in their shirts!

 

 Proud Daddy taking his daughter to her first Red's game.

 

My brother-in-law's girlfriend managed to get us a suite at the game.  It was amazing and the ONLY way to watch a ballgame!  ;)

 

 

 

 

Sunday, we were up early again because we were Kings Island bound!  But we couldn't get the day started without C having a MAJOR wipeout in the parking lot!

 

Perfect way to start the day.  Everyone loves a screaming kid in the morning.

 

  Thankfully, there were too many distractions at Kings Island for her to dwell on her knee too long.

 

 

 

 

 

We pretty much stayed in kiddie land the whole day since those were the only rides the little girls could ride.  They didn't seem to mind though!

 

 

 

The girls giggled and carried on and bounced from one ride to the next all day!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Relaxing in between each ride.  Her life is sooo rough!

 

 

 

 

 

By 6pm, all the rides had been rode and all the junk food had been eaten and we had to say our goodbyes.  We ended our day with another dramatic screaming/crying fit as we left the park.  Luckily she was so worn out, that she passed out 2 minutes into the car ride home.

 

It was a good weekend but it will take us all week to recover.
