Baylor Homecoming

What a treat it was to be back at Baylor this weekend for homecoming! Even though we had to get up so early to make it on time for the parade it was worth it to be able to share those special memories I have with my boys. We got there a little later than planned, but luckily our friends saved us a spot so Connor had a front row view of the parade.
Not only was I excited about being back on campus, but I also got to catch up with one with one of my best friends, Callie, and her husband Troy. We always have so much fun together!

We had a great lunch at Ninfa's and even got to do some shopping at Spice.

Before we left Waco, we made one last stop at Cameron Park Zoo. I was always so impressed with what a nice zoo Waco has and was thrilled to get to take Connor. All 3 of us really had a wonderful time and enjoyed seeing all of the animals. Here are a few highlights from our trip...

Connor trying to figure out how the monkeys are hanging from the trees!
Cole and Connor on his 1st trip to the zoo. Can you tell who is ready for a nap?
Checking out the lion.
My favorite animal at the zoo.
Connor's favorite animal that day. He would giggle every time the elephant would flap his ears.
Cole's favorite.... As soon as we walked in to the zoo we heard this squealing and thought it was a kid, but soon found out that it was a monkey!! We have never heard anything like it! And all this time I have been telling Connor that the monkey says "e e e"!
