Today started with Reagan's, Children's Nature Hour Class at the Ford Nature Center.
The topic today was "under a log." They were going to learn about all the creepy crawly stuff that lives under logs. They sang their song and read their book We then went into the woods, to look under logs, to see what we could find! They loved it and even Reagan, who is a little skittish around bugs, was into it. They found potato bugs, spiders, slugs, and even a salamander it was so cool! They all just loved the little salamander!
When we were done with that, we went back up to the Nature Center to make our craft. They were making a little salamander out of pipe cleaners. It was too, too cute! Reagan carried him everywhere the rest of the day.
After Nature Hour we headed over to Fellows for Family Garden Friday. They had a lot going on! They had big buckets with bubble solution, limbo, a parachute to sing around. They also got to plant a cucumber to bring home and learned about each part of a plant. It was a great time! Reagan had a ball!
This evening, Jim and I were off to see Tim McGraw at First Niagara in Pittsburgh! We stopped for dinner at the Shale on the was down. We just love that little place and it's an awesome stopping place on the way to Burgettstown, since their isn't much down there.
We got to the concert a bit early, so we had some drinks in this patio area.
Finally, it was time for Tim! We had AWESOME seats right down by the catwalk. It was great. He was standing RIGHT there the WHOLE time!
He put on a fabulous show, although he was a bit grumpy about his IFB. He kept ripping it out and putting it back in. Eventually, he ripped it so hard that the plastic tip that sits in your ear, went flying! Yikes!
A funny thing that happened was, during Indian Outlaw, a young girl dressed head to toe in an Indian costume, hopped right up on stage behind him. He was singing at his stationary microphone and NEVER even saw her before the security guard took her off the stage. It was too funny!
The best thing that happened was, Tim was bending down, shaking people's hands while he was singing on song. There were people on both sides of the catwalk, so he had his back to us. There was a kid right up at the catwalk, on our side, waving his beer around and actually spilled a little bit on Tim. Tim turned around, gently took the beer off the kid and then tossed the whole thing in his face. They kid was SOAKED and was in total shock! It was HILARIOUS!!!
It was quite the eventful show. Awesome, too! We had a blast!
Reagan was going to spend the night with Nana and Papa. They ended up having dinner at Johnny's, then went to Yumberries for dessert! Reagan was thrilled!
Great day for everyone!
