Party like a 4 year old

He was so excited to wake up to cinnamon rolls & Mario cookies! 

A birthday craft while we waited for Dad and Sam to wake up!

Bowling fun with friends

He wore that Mario hat the entire day! 

The incredible looking and tasty Mario cookies from MKJ Cookies!!
The mushrooms were my favorite while Coop adored the Donkey Kong ones!

A Sweet Cakes by J creation - chocolate cake w/ cookies and cream buttercream! Mmmmm!

On a total sugar high! 

Perhaps he didn't want to accidentally spit on to the cake?!

He really wanted to run free. 

Kanazawa Zoo and Slides

We have been seriously missing the San Diego Zoo, and while we enjoyed Ueno Zoo in Tokyo, it is way too far away for a quick trip. We ended up checking out a really small zoo close to Yokosuka called Kanazawa Zoo. Coop always loves to see giraffes (I still remember when he was obsessed with penguins!), and Sam is mainly just concerned with running free.

Almost time to slide! 

Coming back up for more sliding! 

Time to head home!
