A weekend with Mom

^_^ Well my weekend was sure busy!

Friday morning Ben and I drove to my Mom's place in Grapevine for a weekend visit. We were keeping ourselves busy the whole time! When we got there we didn't stay at her apartment long because she had a party planned at a nearby bowling alley/lazer tag/pool place. @_@ It was sooooooo cool! It was called Main Event, and they had it going on there for real. Everything was lit up in black light and they had cool disco lights everywhere. At first I was having a real hard time bowling but I got better over time. Afterwords we went to some fancy italian place called Carrabba's. o_o; It was odd because it had plants on the roof. lol.

Saturday we left first thing in the morning to go to Waco. First we went to the zoo and then to the Dr. Pepper museum. Ofcourse we were all craving Dr. Pepper after we had watched all the old commercials at the museum and had looked at all their displays. :p We found a cute little diner place that had been in Waco for SEVERAL years to eat at, which was cool because it was very nostalgic. The zoo was fun but it was waaaaaay too hot outside for me to enjoy it. @__@;; Ben was just fine, as usual. He takes the heat a lot better than me... him being one of those outdoorsey people. Even the animals at the zoo seemed to be bothered by the heat. There was a huge black bear that stayed in it's pool the entire time, sloshing around and making biting gestures at my Mom through the glass. O_o;; It was kinda funny to see. I really, really wanted to see some big cats but the jaguar was all tired out and was kinda in a slumped position with it's back facing the glass, so it was hard to get a good picture of it. The lions stayed far away from the fence in the shaded area, so it was even harder to get a good look at them. The zoo had one meerakat, which I thought was REALLY cute! ^^

Today we went to my Mom's church and then went to visit her parents in Anna. It was a nice visit, but Ben and I were ready to get back home so we wouldn't have to drive the 2 1/2 hour drive back home in the dark. @_o

and now... I'm done. :D I'M HOME YAY! I missed my Buu. *hugs her dog*
