We arrived at Grandma Sandy's house at 6:00. Thankfully Grandma talked Maya in from Medford--Maya was close to a breakdown! Grandma Babe was there in between appointments and everyone hugged and kissed and quickly sat down for a home cooked meal.
After supper we headed off for a walk to see Jonathan, Teresa, Tyler and Porter. Grandma and Maya collected leaves and galloped.
Maya and Porter stared at each other for about 1.2 seconds and took off to play. There were guitars...
And ponies...
It was a pretty early night because everyone was pretty exhausted.
Tuesday (9/9)
After dishes
and baths
we took advantage of the weather by heading over to Waseca to tromp through Courthouse Park.
Maya taught Grandma Sandy how to ride a pony (are you sensing a theme in Maya's brain).
After taking a wrong turn in the woods we came out in a field and had to walk back to the park on a gravel road. Fin was a dream--just hanging out in the Moby--and Maya was a trooper hiking most of the way on her own. Until the very end when she decided to sit down and have a birthday party for her "puppy".
We stopped at DQ on the way home and Maya ate the biggest ice cream cone imaginable. And before you ask why we got her a giant ice cream cone...we didn't. Maya has taken to "trading" ice cream treats. So...if you are ever in a position to eat ice cream with Maya be prepared to hand over the goods...because in her mind trading does not require agreement!
After naps Grandma Babe came over to chat with Maya and snuggle with Fin!
We played 500, ate cookies and cheetos and enjoyed each others company!
