More fun, ABQ style

So we've been doing a pretty good job of filling in the days with fun activities.  
For Kimber's Birthday we went to the Aquarium....we got a great deal on a season pass to the zoo, aquarium, and the botanical gardens.  We've definitely been taking advantage of it!! 
We have been going to one of the 3 places each week and have enjoyed each one.  
 The picture above is a slide down the log at the botanical gardens.

 They look forward to Friday's because they can sleep on the 'couch bed'
They really look forward to it all week!
 The girls voted Zoo last week, so we went for a quick trip. 
Below is us on the train....pretty much our family these days...
we miss Ben, but are super glad he is doing so well at the Hospital.

 It was the perfect morning to go to the Zoo...all of the animals were out and moving!
 Zebra's are one of the girls favorites!
 After they'd had enough, we played on the jungle gym play area (above the girls in the pict) for about an hour, then they were hot....so before we went home for lunch they got drenched on the splash pad.
It was hilarious!  The water randomly shoots up out of the grate in all different places.  The girls had a ball chasing it and ended up little wet rats.  They giggled the entire time so it was well worth it!
We've decided weekday mornings are thee best times to go places like this because the crowds aren't bad and it isn't too hot!   Come and visit and we will take you to the awesome places too!!
