Day 88: "Don't Leave Grandma!"

Posted by: Cris

The title of this post was the soundtrack of our day from Juneau & Nova. Every time we mentioned that later this evening we had to take grandma to the airport, they would set into a chorus of "Grandma, don't leave!!" (especially Juneau - Nova however would reply "But grandma has to go home and take care of grandpa!")

So, we headed out for some last minute shopping and to take grandma out to dinner one last time on this trip.

Juneau and Nova's favorite elevator game "I think it's going to be mine" (that gets here first after pushing the button). On the way down to our destination - "California Pizza Kitchen"
While we waited for our table, the girls had fun playing on the railings and stairs outside the mall.







Dinner time...
After dinner, we still had some time to kill before the airport so we were able to fit in a quick trip into Sears (through the tools section of course)
Nova took the opportunity to pause and watch a few minutes of Shrek:
Juneau was glad to join in watching Shrek...
Finally, back at the car, Grandma unveiled the suprise presents she had been dying to give Juneau and Nova all week:
Jessie and Woody pull-string talking dolls!!
As you can imagine, they were ecstatic and ridiculously excited!


So of course, we had to listen to Toy Story quotes from the dolls (and Juneau laughing uncontrollably at them) all the way to the airport!

Finally, it was time to say goodbye to Grandma...
We can't imagine how we'll get back to normal without grandma. She took care of us all so well and we can't stand to see her leave. Thanks for an awesome 2 weeks - We love you!!
