More milestones.

Today we saw another first as a family.  In the springtime, as a kid, one of my absolute favourite things was to visit Dairy Queen.  Those were the days that actually saw the DQ close over winter, so their OPEN sign lighting up again after all those dreary winter months was a sure sign of spring and of warm weather.

Dan and I may have gone with Jaia last April/May, but she wouldn’t have been old enough to enjoy any of the ‘cool treats’, so it doesn’t stick out in my mind as a big deal.  But tonight, after our dinner of BBQ’d burgers, we couldn’t resist.  Another milestone reached:  Jaia’s first ice cream cone.

I think we may have a bona fide ice cream lover on our hands.
