The Birthday Festivities

Maura was very sure of what she wanted for her birthday. First of all she wanted a big yellow duck, she wanted to go to the zoo, and eat dinner at Chuck e Cheese. We decided to go to the zoo the day before because Thursday was supposed to be rainy. She had a lot of fun, but was very tired by the end of the day. When she opened up her presents the next day, she was ecstatic to get the big yellow duck she had been wishing for for 2 months. That evening we went to Chucky e Cheese and the kids ran wild. After they had had enough, we had cake and went home. We had a good time celebrating our little miss Maura.

Topher was in awe of the polar bears.


Maura had more fun running over this bridge than looking at the animals.


She had to stop all along the way and pick up flowers.


The long awaited yellow duck.

Maura loves pengiuns, so she got a Happy Feet cake.
