Last Day Fun

It is not really my last day before school starts, but it is one of the last days.  So, I decided to make it a day for the girls and I to have some fun.  Madison wanted to go to the library to play with the trains.  So, that was our first stop.  When we arrived, we had to greet the “kids” that are always outside reading.  It is something we do almost every time we go to Orrville library; today was no exception. 

We happened to run into Grandpa Yoh walking in to the library as well; that was an exciting surprise. 

The trains were on the agenda, but they only happened for a few minutes because we discovered something that we had never seen before – a castle with princes, princesses, kings, queens, knights, and horses!  Madison loved it and spent most of the hour there. 

  

We walked out happy and with a bag FULL of books to enjoy.  (I read 8 of these right after Madison woke up from her nap.)

Next stop: Wayne Street Park to meet Luke, Lilli, and Sam.  It was fun to run, play, chase, slide, and laugh together.  It was fun for me to have a chance to talk with Luke for a little bit too.

    

Third stop: Wendy’s.  Madison chose her favorite restaurant.  If it was up to me, it would have been somewhere else, but today was about them.  Plus, they do both eat well here.  Ellie was very entertained by the baby that sat next to her.  She is in love with babies right now – real babies, baby dolls, pictures of babies… if it has to do with babies, she is all about it!

Last stop: Faithful Little Cupcake.  This was the destination Madison as most excited about.  She really wanted a purple cupcake, but settled for a pink (all strawberry) one instead. 

Ellie, because she doesn’t know how to voice her opinion about which cupcake would be best, got the cookie monster cupcake.  She enjoyed it, but was incredibly worried/confused/hypnotized by the eyes on Cookie Monster; hence the reason I didn’t get a smiling picture from her before she ate the cupcake.

    

I just had a confetti cake with white buttercream frosting and sprinkles.  We brought home a red velvet one for Jeremy.

We came home for nap time, book reading, trike ride, throwing rocks in the river time, supper time, and super fun bubble bath time.  It was a good day.
