Sometimes, I forget that we are completely dirt poor because we are DANG good at finding cheap things to do as a family! Early in May, the zoo in Idaho Falls hosted an Earth Day Celebration... in other words- *FREE ADMISSION*!!!
We took the kids up for an exciting day of animal viewing. Laycee's never been to a zoo so it was especially fun to watch her light up with every animal, and make all the animal sounds (She's a little obsessed with roaring.) We took most of our pictures on Barry's phone, so there are actually no animals in my photos.
The petting zoo was hilarious. Jaye LOVES animals... from a distance. At one point all the goats tried to come get some treats from her and she started screaming. Barry had to run in and save the day. Maybe next time we'll stay on the outside of the fence.
You can tell we had a looooong day, this picture was taken only a few minutes after leaving the zoo. My girls were TIRED!
A ton of companies donated gifts for the Earth Day raffle, and out of the hundreds of people there... Our ticket was one of the few drawn! So fun! But by the time we made it to the table, all that was left was this gift basket of cleaning supplies from Melaleuca. Oh well, a prize is a prize!

I need to be better at finding free and cheap stuff to do. You guys always look like you have fun! Also, I keep forgetting you are going to have another baby! You have a ton of energy it seems!
