Field Trips

After months of winter, spring has finally arrived as my allergy clearly announced its arrival. My eyes have been so itchy that I can't wear my contact lenses. Despite the allergy, I welcome the nice cool weather that I can take the kids outside. So we took field trips to the Wheaton DMV so mommy can renew her driver's license and Cosley Zoo.

Nice thing about the DMV in Wheaton is that it isn't a full service DMV hence not many people! I can just see the kids going nuts at the Naperville DMV. In addition to the relax atmosphere, the employers are actually nice! To top it off, it is right across the train station, so the boys enjoyed the view of many 'choo-choos' passing by as they waited in their stroller seats. I showed them my new license afterward and told them that they can't drive without one. (They have to climbing to the driver seat to 'drive' while I strap the other one down.)

After the DMV, we head over to Cosley Zoo. We had lunch there at the picnic area before visiting the animals. As excited as they were about the animals, they kept a safe distance with them. We also ran into an old Parkwooder and her children while we were there :)
