cookies, birthday treats, and the zoo

first attempt at making cookies at higher altitude- they turned out surprisingly well!

Violet's taking notes...

birthday girl on birthday morning... she got to open one present from mommy & daddy and eat whatever she wanted for breakfast (one scoop of ice cream and a big chocolate chip pancake)

some pictures from the zoo that day...

we were all pretty tuckered from all the walking... hmmm... the idea was for some little people to actually ride in the wagon
