This month’s family adventure took us all the way to Tennessee to the Memphis Zoo. When the older boys were younger, we visited multiple times to see the pandas. Since YaYa is getting ready to return to China, we wanted to visit one more time.

Red pandas.

Upon arriving, we first found the red pandas, which were a big hit with everyone, especially M.

We walked around a lot and visited a lot of animals until we finally found YaYa.

It was a really great day with family, and then B pulled off a really big surprise…

“Will you marry me?”

Of course L said yes – and it appears that we will have a daughter-in-love and two babygrands officially joining the family later this year! Needless to say, we’re thrilled!
