Exploring Peoria

 After a quick visit to Sheboygan we came back to Peoria so the kids could finish up another week of swimming lessons.  Once swimming was over it was time to do some exploring.  We are learning our way around and finding things to do.  We tried the Peoria Zoo since we got in free with our Birmingham membership.  Glad we got in free because it's tiny!
 Even though it was tiny and there wasn't much to see it was still something to do.  The kids enjoyed walking around and random things like this camel.
 Another weekend the department of pediatric surgery was invited out to the lake house of one of the big donors for the simulation center that's being built next to Children's Hospital.  The kids had fun in the water and enjoyed the tour around the property.  It was a good time with good company and tons of good food.  Too bad Chuck missed out.
We checked out the mall that's near our house.  There was a Caterpillar play area for the kids.  They had a lot of fun playing in it.
