It Never Gets Old...

We went to Busch Gardens with our dear friends last week.
The Mommies (Sarah, Courtney, and I) took the park by storm with our stroller brigade and 5.5 children (Dillon, Kasey, Isaac, Clare, and Laney Grace).
I know I've posted Busch Gardens pictures dozens of times, 
but "the big park" never gets old.
For more pictures from our day, see Courtney's blog!
Seeing the handsome man in the black jacket is always a highlight for me.
 The kids had a BLAST...in their very own petting zoo.
 Clare wanted to see the snakes, and I blame the aforementioned man in the black jacket for her love of all things snake, reptile, bug, and rock.
 Mike, a special friend of ours (also in a black jacket), 
let the kids enjoy some behind-the-scenes fun. 
Bubba...the giant tortoise.
My little pilot rode all by himself.  That makes him look far too old and far too big.
 I think Clare was trying to tell someone to speed that thing up.  
Too slow for the little adrenaline junkie.  :)
 Love him!
Warning: This video may make you dizzy.
This special day was bittersweet because it was most likely the last day we'll have with our little playgroup.  Sarah and her family are moving to San Diego, and Courtney's gang is off to Houston.  BIG, FAT, STINKIN' BUMMER!  I hate the fact that they are leaving, but I cherish the memories we've created over the past year.  You will be dearly missed!

Such a fun day, but I'm sorry your friends are leaving. San Diego is a really fun place to visit though!

I love this post! You are right, we have incredible memories for this short time we had together. But, we will make more memories soon, like when you come to Houston to visit :)

Bummer, I hate when friends move. But maybe you guys should move to San Diego too, then I would see you more often!!
