Yes, sometimes we skip school!!

Congrats to Jacob!! He earned his Orange Belt

Yes, Jacob and I skipped school today. (Noah did not want to go but ended up staying home with a bit of a stomach bug). The LR Zoo is building a Penguin Exhibit and we have been donating to help. Our Kids at school had a penny war (2 years ago) to raise enough money to get our school name on a brick. We (the Delashaws) got our invite to attend the ground breaking ceremony so, Jacob and I decided to go. It was this morning. They had the ceremony and then a brunch. It was a pretty neat time. There were not very many people there so it was like having the zoo to yourself. Jacob, as you can see from the pictures got some one on one time with a couple of the zoo keepers and a few animals. Jackie the penguin was there and he loves to strut among the people. The Gov's wife was there--- Jacob did not really know who she was but shook her hand anyway. I had told him he had to really polite and smile since all the t.v. crews were there. So if you are in our area watch for us on the news tonight.
