Thank you to Gigi for another great Friday together! I just want to know, did the washer/dryer guy not get the idea that I was in a hurry to get to Bob Evans?!? One word-PANCAKES!
Saturday was another really fun day. Mema came down and we drove to Indy to Race for the Cure. I know you’re all thinking,”What? Did you have to drug her?” Actually, Mema did quite well in the car and only had a couple of back-seat-driving-gasps. Way to go, Mema! Once we got there, we headed over to the natatorium to snag our bib numbers and t-shirts. Now technically, I was not supposed to have a t-shirt, but Daddy made it happen for me! So, I too, have a commemorative Race for the Cure t-shirt! Now if you couldn’t believe that Mema made a car trip to Indy, you’ll never believe this. In a crowd of 50,000 people, we found Aunt Carrie, Uncle Manata, Riley, & Taylor waiting to race, too! Cell phone communication is an awesome thing! Riley and Talor were decked out in their very own t-shirts and looked super cute. I’m sure Aunt Carrie & Uncle Manata will have some new pics up on their website to check out soon. We did our one mile walk…well…some of us did. Riley and Taylor “strolled,” and I got a bird’s eye view from Daddy’s shoulders for part of the way. At the end, Daddy and I hit the snack tent and gathered treats for everyone. If there are snacks to be had, Daddy and I will be there!
We all worked up quite an appetite, so we headed to Champps for lunch followed by some shopping at the Fashion Mall. Everyone was pretty pooped by the time we got home so it naps for all. Thanks to everyone for such a great day!
On Sunday, Mommy and Daddy spent the morning cleaning the house while I put puzzles together and watched Elmo. Don’t worry, the day improved immensely when I found out that Adam and his Mommy and Daddy were going to come to Lebanon to see Ice Age 2 with me! It was great! We were the only ones in the theater, so it was like our very own private screening! Since I’d seen Ice Age 2 once before, I was able to tell Mommy and Jennifer all about the parts before they even happened! I think they liked being well informed throughout the duration of the flick.
After the movie, we headed back to our house for some playtime. Adam and I played in my playroom while Mommy and Jennifer talked about grown-up stuff. Daddy and Rob played pool in the basement. Daddy’s dream has come true! His apartment in the basement is officially up, running, and open for business! Adam and I spent some time in the back yard playing with bubbles and chasing each other! By 8:30, we were both pretty worn out. Adam feel asleep in the car, and I had made no protests going to bed. Thanks, Adam, for coming and playing with me! You’re awesome and so are your mommy and daddy!
