Today was a busy day!
We started by gathering up the rest of our stuff for our drive to the beach! Jim headed into work for a few hours to tie up a few loose ends, while, Reagan and I headed to Tales for Tots at the Ford Nature Center.
This month, the topic was baby deer. Reagan was so excited! We got there and started with our coloring page. After everyone arrived, we headed inside to check out the deer statue. They got to pet him and hold some real antlers, too cool. We then headed back outside to do their craft. They got to make the scene of a fawn laying in the grass surrounded by sticks and leaves. The kids had a blast gluing the cotton ball spots, sticks and leaves to their picture. After we finished that up, we went over to a nearby tree where Miss Julie read a story about deer. The kids were very good during the story and paid close attention. We fished up the hour by taking a walk down a nearby trail to see if we could catch a glimpse of any live deer. No such luck. Oh well, we had a wonderful morning and are already looking forward to next month's.
We got home, loaded the car and set off for Greensboro. We always stop at the same place. We love getting the nearly nine hours of drive time out of the way, then we only have about 3 ½ hours to the beach in the morning. Jim was so nice and drove the whole way! Reagan was a trooper, too! I loaded her up with some new puzzle apps on the iPad and she watched a little Netflix. She broke out in song here and there too. We got to hear Twinkle Twinkle Little Star and Old McDonald Had A Farm a few times over! Except for the singing, we barely knew she was in the car! Not one single tear was shed the entire way! YAY REAGAN!
We got to Greensboro around 9:30 and only made two stops on the way down. Jim went to check in to find there was a high school tour group checking in! Seriously, we just want to get to our room! Luckily they went pretty fast and we were upstairs, quick! We can’t wait to start our final leg to the beach in the AM!
The photo of the day is Reagan amongst all our luggage...
I have to add a Tales for Tots picture, too! Here is Reagan and her craft....
