ZooRassic Park

The Zoo and River Safari had a dinosaur exhibit going on the last couple of weeks. We made a couple of trips up to the Zoo to see the dinosaurs. Like everything the Zoo does, the exhibit was fantastic. There were some stationary dinosaurs, but most were animatronic. And we could touch them! We might not have been supposed to touch them, but they were so close to us on the path we did. Everyone was, so that makes it okay right?

The kids had a lot of fun, and we met up with friends at the zoo. It is always a trek to get there, but so worth it. It makes us all so happy. I love the zoo.




This kid loves to growl. It was pretty adorable at how excited he was to see everything.


Not our wagon.



Brothers playing together.



Henry for once you can touch the things and its not a problem.




A couple days later we went to the River Safari to see the rest of the dinos. They only had a couple there, but the River Safari is my favorite. We saw a wild monkey hanging out on the top of the walk way. The Anaconda was swimming around in it's water. We had never seen that before. We made it out alive of the Squirrel Monkeys alive. Saw the largest salamander in the world getting fed. It was a good River Safari day. Henry only ran out of the gift shop with toys twice. And biggest thing of all, I did not take a stroller! I am graduating from the giant diaper bag to a smaller one, and from my big stroller to my smaller stroller. It was nice not having to lug as many things around as I have in the past.



And checking out real life dinosaurs, reptiles.

We can now say we survived ZooRassic Park. Thank you SG Wild Life Parks for rocking our world once again.

Traveling Half Way around the World

Image
We made it to Manila! We flew over the US and the Pacific Ocean to get here. Our total travel time was 55 hours. It was long but surprisingly not bad at all. Cosette was an angel and the Haneda Airport in Tokyo was like a hotel. If those two things had been any different attitude in writing would not be so positive. This odessy of a journey begun way before our first flight. Packing up our apartment for our subletters took a lot longer than we supposed it would. So instead of being refreshed and ready for the long trip over we were tried and I did not want to get out of bed. We got enough sleep to keep on going till our flight from NYC to San Fransicso where we tried to rest. That flight for me was the worst. Cosette did sleep but was up for a lot of it. The plane was cramped and Lyndon and I were seperated by the aile. Thankgoodness for kind and patient people who sat next to us. Playing at the San Fransico airport.   Our flight to Japan was awesome. We had a

Remote Learning Part 1

Image
Remote learning is over for now, thank goodness. We have been doing remote learning since March 20. We are experts at google classroom, zoom meetings, and google meets. It's been rough, but we did it!  This post is long and detailed about what each kid had to do everyday for school. It was intense. The kids did wonderfully. Their teachers are amazing! They worked around the clock to learn all the new technology, meeting with students individually. I received personal phone calls from them asking what they could do to help and also talking to my kids. I am so grateful for the teachers they had this year.  All three kids participated in remote learning. Each grade/teacher did something different. What they all had to do was answer and attendance question by noon, read for thirty minutes a day, and I-ready (an assessment program that helped determine where they were in math and reading).  Third Grade: Cosette's assignments were what she was doing in school. She completed two huge

Valentine's Day

Happy Valentine's Day! This has become one of my favorite holidays in the last few years. This year especially I am really into it. It probably has to do with my sweet Lyndon who proposed to me on V-Day four years ago. Since then he has made Valentine's Day a fun and special day. He always surprises me with something fun. Usually we go eat some where fabulous and go see a ballet or opera. He likes to do something cultural on this speical day. This year I am getting into the spirit more. Cosette can do a lot more things. We made special Valentine's for our families and made yummy cookies. She kept sneaking cookie dough and eating it. She is my daughter.  The finished product waiting for Lyndon. I went to the Cake Boss Bakery last year to get Lyndon something for V-day and was inspired to make the dark chocolate bowls filled with chocolate covered strawberries. It was a lot easier that I anticipated. Oh, and that cloth on the table are the pajama pants
