Audrey's 9th Birthday

Our sweet 9-year-old on her birthday! She opted for a cookie cake.

To celebrate her birthday, our family took a trip to the Okinawa zoo. 

It was fun to see all the animals, but I think the chimpanzees were our favorite. The baby kept teasing the mom and then swinging away. Notice the way she is her rubbing her forehead. 

Playing in the net

The birthday girl was sad they didn't have real pandas like in D.C., but she enjoyed riding the panda on the carousel and sitting by the cute panda statue.
