zoo coffee and a night away

One last highlight from our October holiday break..... the girls got such a special night away with precious local friends.  They were beyond thrilled to do this!


This sweet auntie of theirs is a long time friend of our family and she is so great with the kids, all of them, and was so kind to suggest this little night away.

Although we live in the same city, our homes are very far apart - about an hour in a private car, two hours by public transportation, so this was quite the trip for the girls!


There were many highlights - but a trip to zoo coffee was one of them :)


I've never been here but it seems like a unique place to get a cup of coffee (or ice cream!)


The girls just loved this trip.  I'm so thankful for friends like these.


Now we are full swing back into local school.  Although a super long break right at the start of the school year isn't my favorite... it seems like such an awkward way to disrupt the routine, right as everyone is getting settled in the routine!..... but I did really enjoy the freedom it allowed our normal schedule and for the fun experiences we chalked up during the holiday!!

Zoo coffee is surely unique. Looks like the girls had a great time on their overnight. They are both looking taller; growing up fast!
