What we do when James goes to Mexico

Last weekend James was off in Mexico for a work trip.
Which meant Owen and I were home alone with nothing to do.
So we came up with some stuff..

After dropping off James at the airport shuttle at 5:30 am we decided to get ready and head to Cracker Barrel for breakfast.

 Owen loves his whipped cream!

Later we decided to make some edible oatmeal play dough..

 Emphasis on the edible because the first thing this boy did was take a big bite!

 And then he made a "snowman"


We also took a trip to the bowling alley..

Where Owen found out that air blows out of this thing and thought it was amazing!
 
 And although he used this thing to push the ball and had bumpers up..

 I only managed to beat him by two points.. I'm that good.


Next was the zoo!
We lived really close to the zoo in Tennessee and had a membership so we could go all the time, so its been a little rough since the move being farther away. We love the zoo!

 Turns out the Jacksonville Zoo has an awesome train!

 His first faces looked like this..

Then I told him it was about to start moving..

And I got this! He was pretty excited :)

The penguins were also a success.

They had a little dome you could get up under to see them up close.

The goats were one of his favorite things in Nashville, so we were happy to see them here too!
 


Then with carousel rides and alligators to climb on, what more could we ask for?




Feeding giraffes!
This was my favorite part and it was so fun to watch Owen's reactions!

 They would get right up close and take the leaves right from your hand!

 Luckily the nice woman working there was willing to use my phone and get pictures for us :)


After four days away from home James finally came back!

Bringing Owen a lovely surprise that he wanted to wear for days :)
