A couple of Saturdays ago, Alex and I decided that since we had no other obligations we were spending a day doing something the kids would really enjoy. We asked them for some ideas, but we didn't get very far. We finally decided we would take them for pizza (CiCi's) which they love and we'd go see Gnomeo and Juliet. We haven't had the best of luck with taking Maddie to see movies but we figured it was time for another try. I didn't realize until we got there it was a 3D movie, but it was fine. The kids loved the glasses and thought it was fun that we all had to wear them. The movie was really cute and Maddie did a much better job with sitting still than she ever has before! We were pleased. :-)
Monday was President's Day and Alex had the day off, Ashton had a make up day at school and I had plans to go with our friends, Kevin and Tiffany. So, off to school Ashton went and he was a daddy/daughter day for Alex and Maddie. They had what Maddie has named, "the best day in her life". After taking Ashton to school, they went to the park and played and played.
Maddie liked the new big red chair swing and she has always loved the slides. But Daddy's UNDIVIDED attention was the best part of all!!!
After some time at the park, Maddie needed a slush of course. So away to Sonic they went! Daddy is a sucker for his little girl some times! LOL
Here is Maddie after getting her fingers and toes painted. This is a standard Daddy/Daughter day for those two. Maddie loves it and its her special thing they do. She doesn't get half as excited when I take her as she does when Alex does.
They even shared part of their day with Ashton. Alex doesn't get to eat lunch with him much and so Maddie was more than happy for the two of them to go together. She was, however, a little disappointed the lunch wasn't something she liked. She really wanted to go through the line for a "school lunch". LOL
