No year has brought us a big trip, but we still managed to get a few fun days out of the time off school. For us, it is just nice to not have to keep to the school schedule. And can I get an &#8220;amen&#8221; for not making lunches? With Ethan home, he was able to join us on our adventures too, which we all love Daddy&#8217;s help, I mean his company.<\/p>\n<p>We finally tackled the zoo. I don&#8217;t think we had been since last fall and it was fun just to experience it as a family. We actually spent just as much time at the playground this time as we did with the animals. The girls are at a great age to run around together and always want to play, but it was usually too hot. However, the weather was beautiful while we were there, ending the day with a cool breeze.<br \/>\n<img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/whaleylife.com\/photos\/d\/6265-1\/image_001.jpeg?resize=300%2C400\" width=\"300\" height=\"400\" \/><br \/>\nThis photo cracks me up. It was the only one that I got with all three girls. And this is Audrey&#8217;s &#8220;I have to potty&#8221; face. I love that we captured it. She pants like a dog when she has to go and I will say &#8220;Do you need to go?&#8221; Her response is usually something like&#8230; &#8220;&#8230;.ummm&#8230;.. nope!&#8221; But the actions speak louder than words to this momma. <\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/whaleylife.com\/photos\/d\/6271-1\/image_4.jpeg?resize=400%2C300\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" \/><br \/>\nNext up we hiked up a trail at Radnor Lake. We were going for the moderate level one on the south side, but it was closed, so we did the hard one instead. It was a little of a climb for the younger ones, but we all made it. I for one got an awesome leg workout carrying an extra 30 pounds up the hill. The girls spotted a few birds with Daddy, picked up sticks and acorns, and ran screaming from a few bugs, but we still call it fun. Again, the weather was great. Just what we all needed, a little time outdoors to enjoy God&#8217;s beauty.<br \/>\n<img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/whaleylife.com\/photos\/d\/6269-1\/image_3.jpeg?resize=400%2C300\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" \/><br \/>\n<img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/whaleylife.com\/photos\/d\/6267-1\/image_2_001.jpeg?resize=400%2C300\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The rest are just of us around the house. You may not think much of them, but I love to look back at these photos years later. Audrey is wearing a Chelsea Football Club (soccer) jersey that was Alyssa&#8217;s. Ethan was so excited, I mean really, when I dressed her that day in uniform.<br \/>\n<img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/whaleylife.com\/photos\/d\/6261-1\/image.jpeg?resize=300%2C400\" width=\"300\" height=\"400\" \/><br \/>\n<img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/whaleylife.com\/photos\/d\/6263-1\/image_2.jpeg?resize=300%2C400\" width=\"300\" height=\"400\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This year didn&#8217;t bring any big trip for the Whaleys&#8230;.who am I kidding?
