Wildlife Safari & Nora's Birthday

Wildlife Safari is a drive-through animal park where you get really close to the animals.  This ostrich played the role of street guard.  He seriously stood right in front of our car for 10 minutes, and made it clear we were not welcome. Then he went and did it to the next car.  Nutso!


Grandma Mary sharing a moment of quiet time with P & S in front of the fish pond. On our way home in the car we learned that Cousin Cooper had been born that morning, 11-11-11!  Happy Birthday Cooper!  The girls can't wait to meet you.


 Nora turned 5 in mid-November, and her family threw her a great birthday party at Dorris Ranch.  Below, the kids are taking part in a scavenger hunt, collecting goodies by running between landmarks after viewing photo clues.  It was so fun!


Running for a clue!


Last weekend Skylar and I paid a visit to Jen, Zero and Molly in Portland (and had a fabulous time!). This weekend we had a wonderful Thanksgiving at Rebecca and Tim's, got and decorated a Christmas tree, and attended the girls' first ballet - Sleeping Beauty. Nora was a bluebird.  She did great! Tomorrow is the girls' four and a half birthday.  We're going to celebrate at the Divine Cupcake.

Holiday cards, calendars, and gifts galore await my attention.  They'll have to wait a little longer!
