Bouncing & Playing - 261/365

Brinkley got a wonderful surprise today! 
Awhile back, he ripped the arm off his favorite duck. Reagan picked out for him for his birthday and was so bummed that it was broke and wanted it fixed. A lot of people offered to fix it, but Jim's mom happened to be over a day or two later, and took it home to try to do surgery. 
Well today, she brought him back and he was good as new! I swear he remembered his favorite duck, because he grabbed it and ran around the living room like crazy!! He played with it the rest of the day.  He was thrilled! It was so sweet of her to go through all that trouble for Brinkley.
Grandma and Reagan had a good afternoon together, while I got some other stuff done. They played with her barn, played makeover in the tent, and read some books. 
This evening, Jim and Reagan went over to Austintown Bounce, while I cut the grass. Jim said there were only two other kids this evening. A little boy that was six and a little girl that was four. Reagan went right over to them and started talking. They became fast friends and they played so good together. They never asked Reagan her actual name, so they just called her, "little girl." They would just say, "Come on, little girl!" They just ran and ran and ran and bounced and bounced! 
After awhile, their dad came over with three balls he had won in the claw machine and gave Reagan and his two kids each a ball. How nice! 
After they left, Jim and Reagan played some video games. Jim was so proud, because it was their first arcade game that they played together! 
When they were done with that, Jim decided to try his luck at a claw game. He had never been able to win anything in one of those before. Well tonight, he won a package of Silly Bands. Reagan just loved them! 
The photo of the day is Brinkley celebrating his mended duck! Thanks, grandma! 
Next, is Reagan holding her silly bands up, at daddy's new favorite claw machine!
