zoo trip and drive-in

Friday was a super great day! We started the day by going to the zoo with Stephanie and Riley.

Both boys fell asleep shortly after leaving the zoo. We carried them into Chuy's for lunch and they stayed asleep the entire time we were there. So we ate, boxed up their food then carried them back to the car. They did wake up as we were leaving though and shared some chips and a taco on the way home!

Then later that night we went to the drive in. Granny and Pappy brought Bryson and Mason and we all settled in to watch Marmaduke.
