Weekend Trip to Columbus

This past weekend, our little family of four packed up the car and headed to Columbus.  I recently won tickets to COSI from Marcy over at  Stretching a Buck, so that was our first stop of the day.

Playing in the water

Admiring the tall buildings

Enjoying the cloud machine

Maddie holding a Madagascar hissing cockroach...yuck!

Olivia holding the cockroach (Where does their bravery with bugs come from???)

After COSI, we checked in to our hotel (thanks for the points, Dad!) and spent time swimming in the hotel pool.  The next morning, we headed to the Columbus Zoo.  We had fun there, but it was SO cold!  Thank goodness for the sun!

My bundled up family

Olivia and Madison with the polar bear (who probably wasn't minding his costume on such a cold day)

Checking out Beco on his 2nd birthday (the zoo even had cake for his birthday...it was cute)

Checking out the tiger

We were only gone for the weekend, but it was really nice to get away for a little while.  Until our next adventure!
