On Sunday, after Meeting we went to our favorite place for brunch, Uncle Julio's for breakfast burritos. Devin even tried the frog legs since there wasn't a lot to eat on the menu due to his allergies. He said they were pretty good, although I'm not sure I'll be trying them anytime soon. We spent the rest of the day in the pool and Sofia was in Heaven with two kids to play with in the water. They must have spent 5 hours in the water together!
On Monday, CK made his famous Pasqual's Honey Whole Wheat pancakes and eggs, which were divine! This time he used almond milk so Devin could have them, which he was very excited about and they tasted exactly the same to me - delicious! After breakfast we broke up in two cars and headed to Fossil Rim to drive through the wild animal park and feed the animals. We got a bit later start than we expected so it was pretty hot by the time we arrived and a LOT of folks decided to do the same on Memorial Day. So, we literally got stuck in "traffic" on the dirt road through the park. It was fun though and we stopped for a picnic at the overlook. It was a good break before getting back into the car and finishing up our visit. The kids were most excited to see the giraffes and feed them through the sunroof since we'd talked it up so much. However, I think they were all full from the previous visitors, so they just looked at us, although one was very close. The kids (and adults) were exhausted after the long day so we went home, cooled off in the pool and napped before dinner.
On Tuesday the Thains had to fly home, so we said our goodbyes and can't wait to see them again - this time at their house! We had such a fun visit and wish we lived closer to each other.
Sofia with "Nurse" Melanie - She loves that she's a nurse!
Cousin Ruel was Sofia's favorite this time since, as she put it "he's super silly." She loved being with him and laughed at all of his silliness. It was cute to watch them together.
