A day with Zen

Maureen and Juan had to go out of town and so we got to watch Zen for the day.  It was a day off school work for Trevor and an all around exhausting, fun day for the both of us.  I swear, Zen never gets tired.  We started the day at Reston Zoo.  

Trevor LOVES the goats.  He said he would give up both dogs if we could have some goats.  heh.

The fennec fox was SO close to us.  omg, I would have a fennec fox!  They are so super cute!

Squee!

Then we came home and just played around.  Trevor and Zen set up a pillow jumping thing, we went to the totlot by our house, we ate grilled cheese for lunch....

We also had to get Trevor new lacrosse shorts.  So we put Zen in some lax gear and decided he should play when he gets older.  He looks good in it!  ;)

Then, as we were walking to the sport's store Zen says "I really could go for a smoothie right now!" and I said "Oh, yea?  Well, we can make some smoothies when we get home.." and Zen replied, "Well, actually, I see a smoothie place right there." True enough and well played, Zen!  We got smoothies at Tropical Smoothie Cafe.  

We ended the day at the pool, but I got no pictures of that.  Zen played in the kiddie pool and Trevor and Rachael swam in the big pool.  Then we came home and I made chicken nuggets for dinner and we chilled until Maureen came home.  We had AWFUL storms, complete with like pingpong ball sized hail.  It was a crazy storm and Maureen had to drive through it.  She arrived safe and sound though to a kid who did not want to go home yet!
