Our granddaughter, Petra, spent her birthday weekend with us which we considered a real honor. Her 9th birthday was actually on 9/11 and I am slow in getting this posting on the boards. In the photo below, the sleepy head is just getting started for the day on Saturday morning.
Dressed and ready for getting out and about.
We had lunch at the Elephant Bar Restaurant. She loved the jungle decor.

The first birthday cake of the day.
After lunch we visited the Deanna Rose Children's Farmstead in Overland Park, Kansas. We didn't know the place existed until one of our Denver relatives found it and visited with her daughter while here. It is a neat place built around the theme of a Kansas farm. There are all kinds of fun things to do as you will see in the coming photos. In addition to the petting zoo, they have various wild animals like owls, hawks, bobcats, etc. that could be found on the Kansas prairies. Most of the wild caged animals were ones that had been injured and would not survive in the wilds on their own.

Lots of opportunities to feed and pet the animals.
Petting not allowed here.
