The grandkids came for a visit this weekend. Once again, it is part of my personal wellness plan. Always on the go. Always moving! Got to stay in shape just to keep up. We worked out at home, mowed the lawn, and went to the zoo. They crashed last night after all that. Me too!

Our daughter Megan came along to the zoo and helped keep track of them. Always running to the next display. Then at the zoo playground, we just sat down and watched them go! It allowed me time to take a breather as well!

We rode the horse. Got on a elephant. Rode the Flintstone’s car. Did an obstacle course. Saw all the animals, birds, fish. Watched the bear go to his picnic table for lunch and climbed up to the table and sat his butt on the chair and ate. Connor thought that was a hoot! We hit all of the face boards as well and had to take out pictures in the faces as well.

We all had a ball feeding the goats!

Connor had to help me mow the lawn Saturday afternoon after the zoo. We had to wait from doing this in the morning because of the rain. He is a great helper. Bottom line, they just want to be involved. He did not want to quit. If I was out there, he wanted to be out there with me!

The best part of the weekend…we got to spend some time together, and we all had fun! This is why my grandkids are my favorite wellness program. The activity…the fun…the togetherness…

Until next time…the zoo will definitely be on the list to continuing going to. Everybody had fun! Just spending time together. It brought back memories of when Megan, Molly, and Nick were this age and we took them to the zoo. Now my kids are helping us take the grandkids to the zoo! Fun!!! Keep moving everybody!
