From our Outing in San Fran

Brent, Brooklynn and I were up in the city visiting the Museum of Modern Art yesterday and met up with Ann and Keith for some clam chowder afterwards. Brooklynn seems to be even more amusing than usual when she's around Ann and Keith.

Brent and I had been in the restroom of the restaurant washing our hands and missed a conversation between Ann and Brooklynn. So all we heard was the waiter taking our drink orders and Brooklynn flips over the menu to the drinks and asks very certainly for "an Apple Cider with no Caffeine." But she was pointing to the adult drinks and Ann explained to the waiter, "she means without alcohol." Brent and I were baffled. I told the waiter she'd take a Sprite.
So what we missed was, Brooklynn asked Ann if they had any juice. Ann noticed that some of the mixed drinks had juice in them, one even had apple cider so she was pretty sure they could get her a glass.

Then as we were leaving the restaurant Brooklynn calls out, "Look, Mom, an iguana!" I was very surprised to see that there was actually a man walking down the street with a very large iguana on his shoulder. He saw how interested Brooklyn was in the iguana and let her pet it. She was very concerned that she wouldn't be able to wash her hands after touching it, but after some coaxing she carefully touched it only using the back of one finger. Two blocks later I pulled a Granda Risenmay and told her to do up her coat because I was cold. She immediately objected and holding her finder out which she had been trying so hard to not contaminate anything with asked "How can I when I have an IGUANA FINGER?"

She also said that Ann and Keith were her "very best friends." Which is not funny, just adorable.
