after church and enjoying a lovely lunch date with friends, we decided to take a sunday drive. we started at the river and found an awesome spot to watch all the people on boats and jet skis (now we totally want to rent one and go out together!) it was so hot outside and it doesn't help that our AC in the car is broken (!!!) but we drove around with the windows down and enjoyed exploring. we somehow made our way to the capitol building and walked around there...

at first we were worried about going to the zoo because of the predicted rainy weather, but we decided to go anyway and got lucky! the sun came out a few times while we were there so it was nice and shady most of the time. i love going to the zoo! we had such a fun time seeing the different exhibits. we couldn't stop laughing at the talking parrot! he kept saying "Hello! How are you?" and he would mimic cat "meows" as people walked by. i recorded it on my vine (@andreabrionne) but i'm not sure how to link it on here, so add me on vine! after visiting the zoo we went out to lunch at Panera Bread. it's been so fun getting to know all the wives that are on the selling team. i'm excited to explore more around sacramento! anyone have any places that we should know about?
