Fun at the Zoo with E!

Ginny and Elliott had a good 'ol time at th zoo today. They saw a bunch of animals, rode a tortoise (check out E trying to figure out the map, ginny should be nervous at his uncertainty), and showed how we give two arm hugs in this family (with a slight chance of tickling).

Dinosaur Ginny!

Roar! Growl! Grrrr!

Ginny's school has costumes for the kiddies to play with. This morning Ginny chose to be a dinosaur to roar at everyone! Thanks mommy for the picture, it must've been hard to take this picture knowing that she might gobble you up next.

Galactic Greetings!

Food Blog Posts: Series 4, Churros

Good job Sarah and seeing the [un]intentional food motif in our last few posts. Well, here's another! Ginny loves her churro, it's so delicious and sweet! She savored the flavor too, by waiting for like 10 minutes carrying around the last bite, teasing mommy and me with it.

McRiblicious!

So juicy, so ephemeral, like the promotion, the sandwich lasts only so long. Its purpose is to be delicious and is its undoing- like a bubble whose sole purpose is to pop...

Cake time!

Check out my beautiful and delicious birthday cake! Missi and Ginny baked it, and Emie and Sarah "iced" it.

An ongoing debate in this house is whether "iced" is the right term to use, or "icing". Tomato-tomorrow, potato-gelato, is what I say.

Mickey Mouse kind of looks like he has a mustache to me.

The Look of Defeat Never Looked So Happy

Since May, Emie and I have been duking it out over an epic bet to see who could go the longest without drinking soda. Tonight it ended with Emie voluntarily drinking some Dr. Pepper and me following suit just a second behind her. It was admittedly a negotiated win for me, but whatev's jack! I'm #1! I'm #1!

I tell you what, when I took that first sip it was wonderful. Feeling the sugar and caffeine go down the hatch and enter the blood stream was thrilling.

I don't know whether I'll drink soda as regularly as before, probably not. But now at least I have things to drink at fast food places besides water and Hi-C.

The photo is of Em as she's opening her soda and realizing that her taste buds were about to see the Dr.

Nice Chargers hat too, right?
