Zoo and Pike's Market

So two days ago we went to the Point Defiance Zoo for a few hours, the kids of course had a blast, Ben loved the sharks the most I think. Samuel really enjoyed the effalants (elephants) and I think Saria's favoriate was the parrot she got to feed a dollar to (it dropped her dollar in a donation box (real bird too) We made jelly yesterday, but it won't set, and I think the reason is because we put too much sugar in, I guess we read the instructions wrong, oh well, maybe I will be able to pick enough berries to do it again. I have been trying to add pictures to my myspace page. After I get them up over there, I will put a few of them here. We went to the Pike's Place Market and walked around there yesterday afternoon. My mom said she could walk around that thing for hours, it really is a neat experience. The kids trid some chocolate spaghetti! Today we went to Illahee again for a little bit, and we walked up and down the nature trails they have, and picked shells and the park ranger gave each of the kids a sticker.
