Our first major family holiday with Zoe was an unqualified hit. We held open house all day at Bubbe Esther and Pop-Pop Bill's new home so she could meet some of our Bawlmer (that's Merlin's largest city) people. And they came by the dozens...friends, aunts, uncles and cousins. Local favorites like french fries drowning in gravy, crabcakes and corned beef all gave way to the traditional Thanksgiving feast. Zoe made do with lots of tortilla chips and one of her new favorites, pumpkin pie.
Zoe was all girl, helping herself not only to Grandma's lipstick, but the contents of Bubbe's closet, as well.
On Friday, it was back to Charm City and the fabulous Inner Harbor for a visit to the Maryland Science Center and lunch with friends. Zoe loved the Science Center, especially the water play area.
We capped off the long weekend with some entertaining at home. If there were ever any doubt, we now know Zoe is a real "people person." In all, she discovered perhaps thirty new friends and family over the long weekend and enjoyed meeting each of them, with just a simple "bye-bye" at separation.
