Before our Spring snow storm the weather was absolutely gorgeous. One dear friends, Matt and Marianne, came into town with their three kiddos and we all headed out to the zoo. We met them while we were in the hospital with Lilly. Their daughter, Makenna, has had half of her brain removed as a result of a rare disease. I am so thankful for them and so glad that our precious Lilly brought us together with such wonderful people. Thankfully we got the zoo early because it turned out to be an insane day. By the time we left around lunchtime there were literally hundreds of people waiting to park. We all had a blast and enjoyed the warm weather.
Liberty and Jacqueline
Liberty's friend Jacqueline also joined us. She was our neighbor before we sold our house.
Liberty and Ellie Kate
Our friend, Ryan, and her children were also able to join us. This is a friendship we also have as a result of our sweet girl, Lilly. Liberty loves Ellie Kate. She is four and has rare genetic disease. She is non-verbal and cannot walk, but Liberty absolutely adores her =). How sweet are they!?
Emory enjoys any activity which allows her to cruise around in her stroller. I realize that there comes an age when you just hope and pray that your child will stay in the stroller without screaming; however, until then I imagine it must feel like royalty just being carted around and shown the world in such a leisurly manner =).
These are the "big" kids
Conner, Micah, Liberty, and Jacqueline
By the time the kids headed to the playground, Emory was out! Too much excitement for her. We had so much fun and enjoyed some wonderful time with our friends!
