Beach Bound day...well we actually headed out around 2 pm on Friday Sept. 14th!! Our goal was to get to Pratsville, AL (5 hrs from home and 3 hrs from the beach) in time for dinner and a little run around time for the kids before bedtime!
Thursday night before we left we hit up the dollar store!! Max and Emery picked out a few books, puzzles, stickers and I grabbed those two sheets of magnets. One is letters and one is coins. I also grabbed a cookie sheet so we could use that as our lap tray/magnet board for our magnets! It worked like a charm!!
We used the cookie sheet A LOT!! Playing a little game of travel trouble! I picked this up at Walmart because both the kids love playing this game. Walmart sells it for $2.50!! Total bargain!!
Emery is OBSESSED with stickers!! Lately she has loved putting them all over her and everything in site instead of paper. Hey...whatever keeps her entertained for more than 5 minutes is okay by me!
Max was LOVING the letter game!! I put all the capital letters up top and the lower case below and he had to match them up!
Emery moved onto coloring...another favorite of hers!! Max not so much....
So PROUD of himself for making all the matches!! Yay!! Such a little smartie!!
Moving onto the ipad and
dress up!!
The drive to Pratsville went very well!! The kids did GREAT on the way down and we made good time! We grabbed some Dairy Queen for dinner since it was right by our hotel. Plus we figured the kids could run around while they ate instead of fighting with them to sit at a restaurant. It worked out great! We ate and ran around a bit (literally ran around in the room, jumped on the bed, etc.) Then we walked back over for dessert!!
Talk about YUMMY!!
Now to just get up and head on to the BEACH tomorrow!! Whoop whoop!!
