Cosette's Visit

My niece came home with us from California and stayed for a month to play and help while we sold the house. Unfortunately, the camera wasn't often around while we were! These favorites are fun though - just imagine the rest!
Cosette loves to cook. We made apple pie, blueberry cobbler, strawberry and blueberry jam, zucchini bread cookies, and lots of dinners. She tried and learned to like kale, zucchini and squash raw, meatloaf, and lots of other goodies! Her goal was to hook Emily around her pinkie, and I think that happened!
The first week Ben was at Safety Camp through the city. The last day was an award assembly, so to pass time while there was another house showing until we could go, we went to a local park. They went exploring down by the creek where Emily fell in. Since we couldn't go home, we were the family with the baby dressed only in a diaper. Great...
We had a fun HOT morning at the zoo. We all loved the baby chimpanzee!
Feeding the birds is ALWAYS the highlight of our zoo trip! Then we had to hurry back home for the plumber!
We had great fun! For some reason I don't have a good picture of "bugaboo" (ask Emily to say that; it's adorable!!!) while we did campfires, but she does that at home! Thanks for coming Cosette!!!
