Omaha

The girls, my mom and I went to visit Laura and Doug and checked out their new city last weekend. I was a few days before Laura's birthday so what better way to celebrate with her!! Before we left the girls and I made a cake for her. They are quite the little cooks and LOVE to help whenever they can!!

Laura and Doug
There isn't too much to do in Omaha when it is freezing cold, but we were able to enjoy the GREAT zoo. Yep, most of it was indoors, and we had a great time. Didn't even get through the whole thing, so we'll have to go back.

The girls when I asked them to look so I could take their picture.

The penguins...Isabel loved them!

our sweet Grace

We stayed at a great hotel, and the girls found a fun place to play...the armoire.

We sang to Laura and enjoyed the cake a few times :)

The girls will be disappointed when we visit again and Aunt Laura's house doesn't have a swimming pool, cool elevator and a cook downstairs :) We were leaving and they kept saying bye Laura's house! She didn't even stay there with us. Sweet girls.

A long drive, but the girls were MUCH better than I ever expected (I was VERY nervous about driving that far with them...hard age to keep them entertained for long confined! Thank goodness for Sleeping Beauty!!!!!) It was great to spend time with Laura and Doug. We can't wait to visit again soon!! Happy birthday Aura!!!!! :)
