Harris Bueller's Week Off

Well, when you're given a week off you must make the most of it, so we headed to our old stomping grounds to see Mary Jo. She's always a party.

First we clowned around. This Clown's signature is his ear of corn cell phone, so Micah decided she had his number!
All is dandy at the circus until someone gets lost. Thank goodness a clown was keeping an eye on her.

Then time to relax at negley park with loved dog Ivan
Hate to rub this in to my old Hershey associates, but we had to taste the Hershey Pantry.

Oh, and chocolate world.
The kids put mini reese's cups on their eyes for a fun picture ...
But then we got an even better picture from the after math.

Onto Zoo America, where you'll find the only zoo displaying prarie dogs
And the shy ocelots poked their heads out to say hi.

Finally, good times with the old lunch bunch I used to work with. We all got together for dinner.
The real reason why we're laughing is because we just stuck a kick sign on Mary Jo's back and she had no idea.

Still no idea.
And the Linguses, the strong Greek neighbors, are doing well but two out of the three had to have surgery. They still managed to bring over some chocolate bunnies for the kids.



Now it's back to reality, well for only a little while. Reality never lasts too long, we're off to DC. Pictures to come.

Don't make your zoo out to be the best. The st. louis zoo has prarie dogs too, lots of them. They'd probably win the prarie dog contest. just sayin'.
Looks like fun.

Ahh Gretchen's Reese's cup eye aftermath is spooky! You are a nice mom to take your kids on such a fun adventure for their week off.
