Memphis Zoo and Bass Pro fun

After a tough week and D getting the day off we decided to have a family retreat in Memphis. We were met with this lizard and Emmy could not get enough of her!

Emmy really wanted to see all the fish in the aquarium despite D saying he didn’t want to go! Sibling fun!

They both found interesting fish they were enamored with, it helped we were the only ones in the aquarium. The zoo was practically empty on this gorgeous day so we were excited to be there!

Grateful for days like this spent with our little family. Life sure is full of blessings!
