Christmas at Pops’ and Mimi’s: day 3

On our last day at my parents’ house, we spent some of the morning at a nearby mall with the goal of getting some of Russell’s energy out and having fun.  Mission accomplished!

Sweet Mimi paid for 2 rides for Russell – the bus ride (above) and the race car ride (below).

Bass Pro Shop had a huge fish tank – Russell loved it!

Russell and Mimi decorated cookies in the afternoon.  He had a great time – did a little decorating and a lot of eating Smile

Meredith did some reading with Jason, some playing, and some crawling around.

On day 4 (Thursday), we drove home.  We had an awesome trip – soooo much better than the last one (in June, for Russell’s birthday).  Both kids slept well (a miracle in itself!) and ate well, and no one got sick – well, except for the thrush Meredith and I have again, but that doesn’t really count!  We were sad to leave but will see most everyone again in a couple weeks for my grandmother’s birthday!
