Saturday night: Arrived to grandma, pappy, Mike, Alysia and Talia waiting for us on the front lawn! Also came in to great weather (sunny, about 70) and homemade pizza! Maddy tried sleeping over in Talia's big girl bed, but there was too much chatting and giggling for any sleep.
Sunday: Visited a super cool castle playground (played on the swings, ropes, tires, maizes and even rolled down the nearby hillside). Came home for a quick lunch, some playing outdoors and then headed to a 3:00 Loons game! Maddy and Talia are big fans of Lou E. Loon, and they even got his autograph! We enjoyed great food, drinks, and weather (though it got a little chilly toward the end of the night). Girls had another fun bubble bath with grandma before bed.
Monday: Happy Memorial Day! We packed up and headed to the Saganaw Zoo, where we saw wolves (Maddy's favorite), a bobcat (Talia's favorite), a sea otter, prairie dogs. peacocks, cows, chickens, horses, llamas and more. We event got to ride a train and a merry-go-round (several times over). After our zoo trip, we came home to some delicious barbeque on the grill, outside playing and just soaked up the gorgeous weather (sunny, about 75).
Tuesday: Today, the rain decided to show up! So, we scooted over to the mall for shopping, lunch and indoor playing before heading back to the house for a wagon ride (when the weather cleared), playing with new books/toys and having some Pizza Sam's to wrap up our stay.
Wednesday: We hit the road early in the a.m. and got home around 6 p.m. We were a little sad and missing our family, but we were happy to take with us some fun, new memories from our trip!
