Road Trip Day 33

This morning we had some eggs or at least I did. Love it how the favorite food changes like the wind for kids. No one really wanted to eat them. Go figure.

Reye had spent the night with Conner so we met them at the corner beach. Boy the floating algae was just everywhere. I am really looking forward to clear lake Michigan. I took the twins out in the two inner tubes and we had a blast. I sang sangs, we counted, played ring around the Rosie and row, row, row your boat. Then Sherman really wanted a boat ride motored by Daddy. He came out and took Sherman. I helped Grant carry buckets of water ove rto the sand and showed him how to use the molds. Reye, Petra and Kay were just playing on their own most of the time. so independent these days.

Then we came back for a quick change and off to the ice cream shop. We had hot dogs and ice cream. Daddy left us their while he ran out for bait. Grant ate the bottom of his cone 1st. Hilarious to watch. The ice cream was pouring out the bottom while he ate it from the top. Sherman was just a drippy lovely mess. I had to keep scooting over in hopes of not wearing his ice cream. Just makes ya laugh.

Randy had a mean head ache so he was happy to lay down with twins. Sad to say the air mattress seems to have a leak. Thank goodness we can keep airing it up. Please hold out for the rest of the trip.

Kay and Reye were playing at Conner's again. I grabbed the lap top and Petra and we were off to Rudder's for some computer time. Petra was a trooper. She colored, played with connect 4 and the peg toys. She build all kids of stuff. i got my job search and blogs updated. I also did a little reading on parenting styles. Still scratching my head.

Disappointed that Reye broke the rule to not play the Wii. Just heart broken when I found out. Day three where he hasn't played right with the Wii. Not sure what to do. I will have to get Dad involved. Funny part was when Reye was out with Robin and Conner at the store. Reye followed some old lady out to her car. No clue.

Randy was gracious regarding Reye's punishment. Vacation has really mellowed his response. He just can't play anymore in OHIO.

We ate some left overs and Conner came over. Randy went out with Reye and Sherman for some fishing. Sherman carried a big pole out all by himself.

The rest of us just hung out and watched some TV and played outside a bit. One hour to go till bed time. I am ready for this gaggle to turn in. Randy came back from fishing with 3 good sized perch. much better than those Sheep heads. Yuck.
