Dinner with the Copelands

We met our friends, John and Ginny for dinner at our favorite Mexican Restaurant. Here's a few camerafone pix:

Whoa! Blurry! Ginny, Summer and me:

Okay, this one's in focus, but what's with the odd look on my face?!

Grumpy Looking guys! Smile, Rich and John!

Fallow Deer:

Adult Ostrich.Naturally, he quit it once we got the camera ready, but he was holding his wings out as he ran alongside the truck, and we could see all the bones in his wings! It was really cool.

Baby giraffe! Ain't he cute!!?? They're having a contest to name him; Summer suggested "Spocky".

He looks like he knows the Secret of Life...

Mama keeping a close eye out for Spocky:

Bye, Spocky!

Summer strikes a pose on the Kimodo Dragon statue:

Caleb's turn!

Nah...I'll just honk his nose instead!

He pointed out his nose, his eyes, his ears...whole nine yards!
