When Dada found out where we were going....she goes.....Oh Mom, you are the best!!! (It totally made the effort worth it to go especially when all I wanted to do was take a nap)
Dada of course was gone before I could even try to get her picture!!
Brother was very nervous to go. He walked out onto the ice and turned right around with me and sat with me on the bleachers. He wasn't about to do it. He didn't care if his cousins were out there and they were fine, he was just going to sit there by me.
Thankfully I had the brilliant idea to do it myself and see if that would lure him out there. And lure it did. He walked out onto the ice with me.
It only took him 1/2 a turn around the ice to realize he REALLY WOULD be fine and that I wasn't lying to him. He skated around the rest of the time only pausing once to rest.
Thankfully Dada paused long enough to snap 1 picture of her on the ice.
AND if you must know.....I only lasted 1 turn around the ice. When it comes to ice skating I am a better WATCHER then I am a participator.
When we got home we had a family night planned. With Hunny's work schedule what it is, family time is something almost non existent. So it was nice just to have a relaxing evening together.
I planned on making grilled chicken, mashed potatoes, corn and apple pie. What I didn't plan on was the awesome help that I had doing it. Dada helped me make the apple pie. She was with me the whole time in the kitchen. She peeled apples and has now learned how to slice on apple for pie. She even learned how to peel potatoes which reportedly is harder to peel then apples.
How grateful I am for that time we had together. It was a nice time to talk with my "little" girl.
This is what is left of our pie. Yep, it's that good. Dada did a great job!!
