Trip to Grandma and Grandpa's House

I took the kids to visit my parents in Walcott to finish off their summer.  We spent a week visiting.  While we were there the kids enjoyed eating s'mores made out of these huge marshmallows.
I had never seem marshmallows so big before.  Madison took one bite and most of hers landed on the table.  Also while we were there we visited Niabi Zoo.  It is in Coal Valley Illinois and I hadn't been there since I was a kid.  The kids were hot and tired by the time we were done but it only took us about an hour to see everything.
Madison and Jonathan just "hanging" around


Can't visit the zoo without a ride on the train
They really enjoyed the giraffes
After the zoo we went to a park along the Mississippi River and they wanted to feed the ducks.  Only problem was there wasn't any ducks to feed so they feed sea gulls instead.
