A Day With Aunt Nenny

I spent the day with Hayden, Reid and Ella. We had a great time and they behaved so well. We started off at the York Township park. The equipment was wet, but the tire swings were fun for them. Reid really enjoyed the bouncy dinosaur and Ella was a trip on the bouncy horse. We then headed to the creek to look for "minos". Hayden really enjoyed the creek. He would like to go back again with Cora and Rosa so they can walk from bridge to bridge in the water. Hayden found minos, water spiders and crayfish. Reid had his snow boots on in the creek and Ella proceeded to walk across in her somewhat new sneakers. After the creek we all were getting hungry. We stopped at the house for new shoes and to let the dogs out. Then we headed back to Red Lion for lunch at Wendy's (restaurant). The kids were again very well behaved. They sat in the chairs and spoke quietly except for the time Hayden decided to talk about cat and dog poop. The Dollar Tree was the next stop for our day. The kids had a fun time picking out 2 toys each. Hayden picked army men and gum, Reid picked a motorcycle and gum and Ella picked a bubble toy and a soccer ball sippy. Our next stop was to my house to let my dogs out. We played there awhile inside and then enjoyed a popsicle on the front porch. Reid's fell on the ground near the end. I told him to throw it in the street and it landed right on the hood of my car. Oh well, can't be any worse then bird shit. All the kids enjoyed playing with the animals. I heard no one say anything about the cats trying to kill them either. Once my house got boring we went to Mam-maw Lou and Pap-paw Pooh's house. We sat on the back porch and enjoyed a rain shower while Pap-paw was picking on all of us. We were all starting to get a little tired, so we headed back to the Klahold house to relax in the back yard and chill in front of the TV. The kids are used to riding in a van, so they thought my car windows were neat. We were heading down Spring Wood Rd and I heard Reid say,"Hayden close your window. Monkeys and bears might come in." Hahaha, I had to laugh. The day was wonderful. Karen walked in the house, straight to the bathroom to scrub off rat shit. James walked in the door, Reid runs through the kitchen and kneed Ella in the head. First time all day I saw tears. Well, the parents are home, so why not!
