woodland park zoo...

Jeff has been gearing up for his big work show PAX going on this coming weekend so Ethan and I had a day to ourselves. What better way to hang out than at the Woodland Park Zoo in Seattle.

We packed a lunch of peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and fruit and headed to the zoo to pretend to be silly monkeys for the day. I even talked him into going and seeing their Dinosaur exhibit. He was a little scared at first but seemed to enjoy it. I think his favorite thing about the exhibit was that the dinosaur spit and burped and of course getting ice cream at the end of the day.

Penny Arcade Expo 2009

The time has come for the Penny Arcade Expo also commonly known as PAX, which means I lose my husband for 4 days and I get to be a single parent. If you are attending the show, Jeff is on the Pitch Your Game Idea Panel on Saturday from 4 to 5 so check him out.

I am trying to schedule our days this coming weekend but a lot depends on what Mother Nature decides to provide us for weather. I am hoping one day we will be able to go to Woodland Park Zoo. They have a fantastic Penguin exhibit if you have not been there recently. I also want to try to make it up to Bellingham one day and possibly go hiking around Mt. Baker with my dad. Of course, since these are outdoor activities and if it rains we will need to have a back up plan and I am fresh out of ideas. If anyone has any please share.
