This morning the kids got up for swim, and I did some research. I really wanted to spend the day doing something fun with the kids. We've had a crazy couple of weeks, and I've been a little irritated how much time the kids have spent just sitting and on their phones. I came up with three solid choices, and all of them were free...just the way I like them! The nice thing though, about our quick trip to visit friends as our "vacation" is that we didn't spend a great deal of money and can afford to do some fun things, especially before Robert leaves.
We left late morning and went to the National Museum of the Air Force. The Memphis Belle aircraft from WWII arrived in May and had drawn lots of crowds. Thomas especially loves history and was thrilled with visiting that particular hangar. I enjoyed seeing everything as well, and Robert and Catherine humored us as we went along.
After finishing there, we were all hungry, and ate at our favorite place downtown. We haven't eaten there in a year or so, and they have the best cheese fries EVER. Robert, Thomas, and I all ordered them, and there were none left when we finished. It was the first time I've ever finished them, and I enjoyed every minute. At the same time, it is a little disappointing that there are no leftover to enjoy again later!
We really enjoyed our day. These are the days I want to remember as we spend our last summer as a family of five!
