The day started early this morning, and by 4:00 p.m. I was surprised to find out that it wasn't 10:00 p.m. I am finding that as a maturing grandparent, my level of ambition seems to increasingly exceed my level of energy.
Nevertheless, today was totally fun, but Debra and I both were able to sneak in a nap at a very inconspicuous time.
 |
| Naomi and Makiah and SpongeBob SquarePants start the day together. |
 |
| Something about SpongeBob brought a look of shock to Makiah's face. |
 |
| Multi-tasking. |
 |
| Nana makes pancakes. |
 |
| Breakfast served. |
 |
| Strawberries with whipped cream sweetened up the meal. |
 |
| Breakfast done, teeth brushed. |
 |
| Ready to leave the house on Oak Valley for a day of fun. |
 |
| First stop: Family Fun Center. |
 |
| Makiah and Naomi climb Cactus Jack's Playhouse. |
 |
| The girls reach the window near the ceiling. |
 |
| Sliding from top to bottom in the playhouse. |
 |
| Running at the speed of light. |
 |
| After leaving Cactus Jack's Playhouse, the girls spend some time playing arcade games. |
 |
| Naomi and Makiah knock over some ducks. |
 |
| Nana watches some cannon shooting. |
 |
| Once the arcade games are finished, the girls negotiate for rewards with the tickets they earned from the games. |
 |
| Time to leave the Family Fun Center. |
 |
| Next stop: The food court at the mall where the girls enjoyed a Wendy's meal. |
 |
| Final stop: The Movies. |
 |
| Makiah and Naomi got to watch a 3-D feature, Monsters Inc. |
 |
| Special glasses not only provide a 3-D effect, but they also allow grandparents to take a nap without grandchildren knowing about it. |
 |
| Clean-up time. |
That picture of them holding hands is so cute! What a fun day! I'm glad you and Debra were able to sneak in a nap. :)
