Fondue, Zoo, and Swimming

Friday night the three of us went out to dinner for fondue. Jason finished another semester on May 11th but he was gone last weekend for the last phase of Yellow Ribbon with his unit so we celebrated this weekend. He also gained his associates degree this semester so it was pretty special. He wasn't planning on getting his associates degree, he just had enough classes. I am really proud of him. I know it has been quite a transition this past year for him coming home from deployment and going back to college to get his degree. We went to Simply Fondue and it was yummy. I didn't take my camera so here are some pictures off my phone.

After dinner we headed to our favorite bookstore: Half Price Books and loaded Sydney up with some books. Half Price has such a good selection of childrens books and a lot of them are brand new and still really cheap. Needless to say we go there a lot.

Saturday morning we woke up and decided to head out to the zoo for a few hours. I am pretty positive we picked one of the hottest and humid days to go to zoo. And it was super crowded. We ended up parking in a field if that tells you how crowded it was. I guess we underestimated how crowded it is on the weekends because we usually go during the week. Jason even asked if something special was going on but there wasn't.
You tell how humid it was by how tight Sydney's curls became.
We were so exhausted and hot by the time we got home. Sydney took a nap around four and didn't wake up until around 8. My parents originally planned on coming over to help start rebuilding out back fence but we had to change our plans for another weekend.

Sunday afternoon Mom and Dad came over and brought Sydney a new toy for the pool.
Can you tell how much she loves this turtle float? Mom is going to be watching Sydney a lot in June and they plan on spending a lot of time in the pool. She is going to have her hands full with Sydney. She is such a "fish."
 After we swam we came back inside and enjoyed some watermelon Mom and Dad brought over.
Sydney ate that whole huge piece plus some. The girl loves watermelon.
