Saturday Fun!

 I normally don't blog about each weekend and what we do, but this weekend was extra fun and action packed so I figured it was blog worthy!

On Saturday morning I went garage sale-ing with a friend.  I must admit, I do not hit yard sales up regularly.  I took Ella and she took her girls with us.  It was SO MUCH FUN shopping for bargains and walking around the community garage sales that we found!  The girls had fun picking out new toys and buying lemonade from the little stands that we passed.  Below are some of the great deals we got:

I got this Littlest Pet Shop toy and animals for only $2.  So far, this is all of the girl's favorite toy!

Little People airplane with 4 people:  $1!  What a deal!

My Little Pony castle and 4 ponies:  $2

Ball pit, never opened:  $2  (Paul was not pleased about this purchase :)

Old antique wagon:  $5.  I will use this as a photo prop.  I have wanted one for a while and probably would've paid $20 for it.  This will be SO cute for outdoor photos of siblings, toddlers, even newborns!  I can't wait to use it!
I also got a princess ride on toy to use outside for only $2 and a outside kid lawn mower for .25 (yes, 25 cents).  All of the stuff I got was in great shape, but I just soaked it all in soapy water when I got home and now it's all clean and has already been played with enough to get my money worth!

Saturday afternoon we went to the Hilliard City Pool.  We spent last weekend here as well.  It is seriously so nice and super fun!  It has a HUGE kid area, a lazy river, a big resort style pool, slides, diving boards, etc.  I cannot believe we had not been here until last weekend.  We will be spending every weekend here that we are in town and available.

Sweet Sophia

I love that it is so shallow and has the zero entry for the little ones.

Ella

She was pulling this rope and water would come out on her.  She is getting more brave and trying new things each time we go!

Even Paul likes the pool, which really says something!

Fun in the sun!

The babies were all wiped out after our afternoon swimming!  We had to wake them up at 5:30pm!

Hannah (notice she still sleeps with her favorite little monkey from the hospital:)

Ella passed out in our bed :)
Saturday evening Paul and I went to Zoofari at the Columbus Zoo.  The zoo is a new client of Paul's at work, so we got free tickets and pretty much had to go.  Little did I know, it would be an AMAZING and super fun time!!  The zoo was filled with over 100 good restaurants in the Columbus area all giving away the best of their food to try, lots of bands playing all night, people dancing, etc.  Who knew the zoo would be so much fun without kids?!  We ran in to some friends that were also there for work and some that had won tickets.  We hung out with Paul's work friends some too.  His work had a private area in the back that we had access to.  It was such a fun time.  I am hoping we get these VIP tickets every year! 

Fun evening out at the Zoo!

Friends we met up with! 



Friends!
Another friend we ran in to that I didn't know would be there!

End of the evening (well, early Sunday morning:)
