MAGGIES FRIST ZOO TRIP

Saturday we got to take Maggie to the Zoo for the first time. My friend Janet had her daughters 4th birthday at the zoo. We packed up the car and made our way to Ft. Worth for the day. It was lots of fun, and a good time. I highly recommend a zoo birthday! Very easy set up, party, and clean up! Plus you don't have to have it at your house!!! Any how, it was a great day. Maggie had lots of fun! Here are jut a few picks of our trip. Check out more of our adventures on www.jackash.smugmug.com

During the party they showed off some animals! My child played with a chair. Next year I think she will really show an interest!! I thought this was a really good pic!


This was a bubble that looked into the water of a fish tank. Maggie had a hard time figuring out the bubble. It was a cute picture of her in it.


Maggie and a giant croc!


Daddy and his little Monkey!


A family shot!


Overall, it was a great day. As we drove home I wished I lived in Ft. Worth sometimes. I just think that city does a fabulous job of making things look great! I get a little jealous sometimes!!

FALLEN OF THE WAGON

I feel as if I have fallen off the wagon! The past few months have been just so overwhelming. I think the craziest I have been in all of my years of teaching. This year I have one of the hardest group of kids. It has really taken over my life. I work so hard at school, and then come home and feel as if I have no energy to do anything. It shows! It shows so much that my husband who stayed home yesterday with our kid got the whole house clean! Yes, my hero came in once again and rescused me. However, I think he draws the line at blogging. So, with a clean house I hope I can get back to the blog world. I will start today with a picture post of our last few weeks! Hope you enjoy.

My sweet little girl!!!


We got a new play set in our backyard. Maggie loves it. We go out almost everynight after dinner as a family and play ball, sidewalk chalk, and climb on the new play set. It has a door and a window part and she will lean out the window and say, "Hi!" It is so cute. We have so much fun.


Max made is First Holy Communion last week. Here is the whole Martin family together!


What a sweet face!
