scenes of a sunday

We started with a little breaky.

Then decided to spend a quiet afternoon at the zoo...or not. It was "Earth Day 09 Day" and there were thousands of people there. If we had known, we would have done something else. Even Ellie goes "who are all these people?" After having the zoo to ourselves all winter, it is hard to share.

However, we managed to have a little fun. We kaiaked.

Watched a belly dancer.

Saw some rhinos.

Played on rocks.

Smelled some spring.

Got our hand painted. It's the earth. For Earth Day.

Slid.

Played a rousing game of "which hand?"

And met Colonel the Police Horse.

Then we headed home where we napped. I didn't want to get out of this spot when Ellie woke up. There was even a gentle rain tapping at the windows.

And folded laundry.

And hugged our baby.

I love Sundays like that.
