Wed: Cosley Zoo & Oasis Pool Park District

I went with the kids to the Cosley Zoo (Free entrance)in Wheaton and then we went to the Oasis Pool in Bloomingdale,(not expensive at all) Suzia, Ela, Julia, Stevie,Karen Maddie, Stevie and Lily joined me as we spend the day together having fun. The weather was just perfect for walking around the Zoo.
We had lunch at Karen's home and then for a quick change of clothes to the pool. (P.S. we left the house a mess after our quick lunch, but she did not mind it)

The sun came out for the afternoon for us to play in the water park. This park had just the right amount of playthings to do to keep them ALL busy.
The water slides, the jungle gymleap pad to cross,(Ela is on it holding the ropes on top and Julia is in front of her) the "O" depth pool entrance, you see Suzia in not afraid at all of the water and trying to get Pan Maca to come in also by getting the pool balls wet for him. Suzia & Karen had fun in the tubes as well. Having Ice Cream when it is hot is great. Water guns of all sizes to get others wet.
Suzia had time to catch a few minutes to read her Harry Potter book.
We capped off the evening at the Koivuns house for dinner "Tacos", one of the family's favorite. Miss Lily was trying to figure out the skateboard, as Ela was on the Porch swing.
Steve came to join us for the Tacos, and then Suzia had to go to work.
By early evening, I would say that all were pretty tired and ready for bed.
