Wednesday Night Volleyball and Zoo Walks

Every Wednesday night the gals have been getting together in Council Bluffs at the Stake Center to play volleyball. It has been so much fun for me to be able to get out of the house and do something I really love to do. I seriously look forward with anticipation for Wednesday nights. I think it has helped me get through this past winter so well. Sometimes there is 20 people and sometimes there are only 4, but we have a great time anyway. Tonight we played the last game tall people verses short people. I was on the short team and we had all of the setters on our team, so naturally we won because the other team couldn't set each other up as well. It was pretty funny.

Since the weather has been sunny, Alicia, Chelsea and I and the kids have made frequent visits to the zoo to go walking. The layout of the zoo is really a great walking path and makes for a great workout as well because of all of the steep hills. I unfortunately get the best workout because I have two kids to push instead of just one. I guess that my legs will be better toned than everyone else's. I also think that I am traumatizing Porter because I will only let him see one exhibit in between laps. Today he asked to stop and see the goats, and I wouldn't let him because we were in the middle of a lap. I'm mean, I know. I should probably let him see more or else he will never want to go to the zoo again.
