(Due to technical difficulties this is the only video you get, but I will say that Jill likes to dance)

Advice to those going to the next one: get there early, bring a blanket (or even a chair) to sit on, don't sit at the end of the else where people will walk on you, and dance—because dancing makes it better.

Oh Zupas!

We love impromptu lunch dates to Zupas...

and collecting trash.

(aren't my roommates such good citizens)

OH Babies!

What is it about baby animals that makes women so crazy about them? Maybe it's how fluffy they are, or how tiny or clumsy they are. Whatever it is there's just something about them that's just so darn cute!

So when my roommates and I found out about the Baby Animal Birthday Party at Thanksgiving Point, we went crazy and knew we had to be there for it. All for the promise of seeing cute baby animals like this guy:

Of course as we arrive we soon realize that we are the ONLY adults there that didn't come with small children. But we didn't care. You may think going to a petting zoo full of baby animals is for small children and their parents, but you are living in a box my friend, in a box, and we are living OUTSIDE the box, where couches become islands of refuge in a land of lava, grown men watch My Little Pony, and a petting zoo full of baby animals is meant for people of all ages. 

Our friend Melanie also came with us, and as you can tell, was just as excited as we were.

 Sara finally fulfilling a childhood dream inspired by the song we all know so well, Mary had a little Lamb.

My excitement and joy spread to the furniture as well apparently...

Ending the trip with a hay ride and a group photo!
