girls!\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p>After the zoo, Julia came up with a plan to go to the Kirkland home store (she had been the day before to a smaller one in Mesa) on the way back to Aunt Cindy&#8217;s house. Since they had a Bass Pro shop right next door, Emmy, Kaylee, and I decided to check it out while she and the twins found all of the right decorations. I&#8217;m not supposed to tell you that Julia had so much fun at Kirkland each time that she dreamed about shopping there two nights in a row.<\/p>\n<p>The Bass Pro Shop is awesome. We could spend all day there, really. We had been to the one in Denver with my family and this one was similar, so the girls knew right what to do when we got there &#8211; check out the aquarium and the elevator. I have good memories of going to the Bass Pro Shop in Springfield, Missouri when I was a kid so I definitely enjoy going back each time. We had fun checking out all the tents, especially the biggest one which they really liked since it had two rooms. While we were there, we made a discovery that not only did the Bass Pro Shop sell fudge, but they gave out free samples. Since we knew Julia would be a while at the decoration store (kidding, Julia!), we decided to try a bunch of different kinds and settled on peanut butter and chocolate for Emmy and I, and rocky road with marshmallows for Kaylee and Julia. I&#8217;m not sure what it says about us that I remember all the details about our fudge but I can&#8217;t even remember the names of the animals we saw at the zoo.<\/p>\n<p>On Saturday morning we went to go see Julia&#8217;s friend Kasey, her husband Karl, and their two kids. Since it was right in the middle of the busy tax season, we decided to meet Kasey at IHOP, where Emmy and Kaylee both got huge pancakes with faces on them. It was lots of fun to catch up with them!<!--more-->All of our Spring Break posts:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a title=\"Bouncy House!\" href=\"http:\/\/juliaandalex.com\/blog\/2012\/04\/bouncy-house\">Bouncy House!<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a title=\"Happy Birthday, Grandma Cathie!\" href=\"http:\/\/juliaandalex.com\/blog\/2012\/04\/happy-birthday-grandma-cathie\">Happy Birthday, Grandma Cathie!<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a title=\"On the Road and Fun in Phoenix\" href=\"http:\/\/juliaandalex.com\/blog\/2012\/04\/on-the-road-and-fun-in-phoenix\">On the Road and Fun in Phoenix<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a title=\"Fun with Family for Spring Break\" href=\"http:\/\/juliaandalex.com\/blog\/2012\/04\/fun-with-family-for-spring-break\">Fun with Family for Spring Break<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a title=\"Great Grandma Conquer\" href=\"http:\/\/juliaandalex.com\/blog\/2012\/04\/great-grandma-conquer\">Great Grandma Conquer<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a title=\"Phoenix Zoo\" href=\"http:\/\/juliaandalex.com\/blog\/2012\/04\/phoenix-zoo\">Phoenix Zoo<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a title=\"Bass Pro Shop and Breakfast with Kasey and Karl\" href=\"http:\/\/juliaandalex.com\/blog\/2012\/04\/bass-pro-shop-and-breakfast-with-kasey-and-karl\">Bass Pro Shop and Breakfast with Kasey and Karl<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/juliaandalex.com\/blog\/2012\/04\/happy-easter\">Happy Easter!<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After the zoo, Julia came up with a plan to go to the Kirkland home store (she had been the day before to a smaller one in Mesa) on the way back to Aunt Cindy&#8217;s house.
