Mommy/Daddy Dates

DiDi picked up Adia on Thursday night since they both had an inservice day on Friday. Daddy managed to get Friday off too because his entire schedule was suddenly rearranged. When the twins woke up on Friday, we took them out to breakfast. They rarely get special mommy/daddy time so we thought they might enjoy it. They definitely did.

After breakfast, we headed to the mall. The twins got to play and then enjoy some frozen yogurt. I think the twins like the idea of frozen yogurt and picking toppings more than they like actually eating it. Daddy and I made the mistake of getting our own frozen yogurts. We could have easily just finished the twins' leftovers. After frozen yogurt, we hit the bookstore. The girls each got a book and we picked one out for Adia too. We made a quick trip to see the animals at the pet store too. On the way home, we stopped by Dutch Bros and the girls even got drinks. Leia got apple juice (she has a slight addiction) and Mira has hot chocolate which she refused to drink until it essentially turned into chocolate milk.

We all took it easy the rest of the day. Everyone seemed exhausted. I spent most of my time working on Mira's Cinderella dress for Halloween. I finished it today! Mira's kind of indifferent to it now that it's done. I hope she ends up wearing it for Halloween.

DiDi brought Adia back yesterday and we got to see Gramma and Papa. They came up to attend Tip-A-Cop at Red Robin. Daddy worked his usual day at work and then spent 4 hours being a "celebrity server" at Red Robin. I was proud of him. All his tips went to Special Olympics and it was a crazy busy night. He'll also do the Polar Plunge again this February. Those donations also go to Special Olympics.

Adia decided she wants to be a ghost for Halloween this year. DiDi bought a white sheet so I could create Adia's costume. I think it was harder for me to make than the Cinderella dress. I still can't get the eye holes to stay in the correct place.

Leia's the last one to outfit in a costume, but she won't make a decision. Rapunzel, a ghost, a zombie. She just won't make up her mind.
