Our Last Foster Family Fun Day





Well, at least I think it's our last as I hope that I have a contract and can start back to work next week. Although I'd much rather continue to have Foster Family Fun Days, we need the moolah! We started out the day arly as Charlotte must have known it was last Foster Family Fun Day and woke up at 6:30. That was good because Greg went to get the hitch installed on our van for our bike rack at 7 am (thanks G and G). When he got back we went to Lincoln Park Zoo where Charlotte had a blast roaring in the lion house and ooh-ooh ahh-ahh in the ape house! She much preferred to look at the posters and pictures of the apes rather than the real thing. We then headed to the farm in the zoo to pet a goat, moo at the cows and help in the kids' garden. We picked beans and onions and Charlotte was a rockstar pushing the wheeelbarrow to the compost pile! We headed back home with a $5 hot and ready large pizza from Little Caeser's , ate lunch and then took a family nap (the best part of FFFD) if you ask me! Our day ended by putting our bikes on the bike rack and heading to the Forest preserve trail to ride a few miles!
