Pancakes

I love pancakes! Can I just tell you that I love pancakes? I remember as a kid we didn't get pancakes very often so they were ALWAYS a treat. I have memories of when I was quite young of going to my Grandma Wetzels house and she would make pancakes into shapes and that brought the level of fun to a whole new level! I remember her making me a turtle shaped one. I don't remember how well it actually resembled a turtle but in my mind, it was perfect. I never saw my grandma wetzel as often as I would have liked. For the first 5 years of my life we lived 5 hours away and after that when we moved closer she was sick with cancer and she passed away two years later. I don't have many memories of her, but her fun pancakes are a memory I hold dear.  Always my favorite thing about pancakes is making them into shapes, and now that I'm a mom with my own kids, it's a fun tradition I can pass down. 
Here are a few of our pancakes we made for our fun Saturday morning. Can you guess what they are supposed to be?
