The boys had the day off from school for President’s Day today. Daddy had to work the early part of the day but he was home around noon. That’s when the day started :-)

Today I Am Grateful:

1) That the boys managed to sleep in till 9 AM today! LOL 30 minutes longer than the whole weekend!

2) For some Free Admission passes we had for Brookfield Zoo – they expire at the end of this month so today was the perfect day to go

3) That the weather turned out pretty decent over all – we were drizzled on a few times while at the zoo but not too badly and the temp was around 50 degrees the whole time with just enough breeze to feel good & not chill you

4) For knowing my Dad will be renewing the membership to Brookfield Zoo soon – especially if we’re going to register for the Zoo Run Run 5K that will be held in the Zoo in September :-) I still can’t get over how much we’re both looking forward to it :-D

5) That I walked the equivalent of a 5K while at the Zoo today – over 7,000 steps!! I’m a little sore but so happy to have had a fun day today ♥ (Fun Fact:  A 5K is exactly 3.10685596 miles – that comes out to be 3 miles, 564 feet & 2.4 inches)
