Earlier in the summer, Grace and Clara worked together on their list of what they wanted to do for their MeeBee day. The picture above illustrates their wishes.
> Swim - check!
> Zoo - check!
> Hike - (does hiking around downtown and the zoo count?)
> "Plae" (with cats) - check!
> Play with Stephanie and Margaret and Kate - check!
> Park - check!
> "Saup" - this needed translation..."Stay Up!" - check!
> Ride on the "Charlie" (Trolley) - check!
Bonus:
> Girl band ("The Hi-Tops") concert at the Wolf Creek pool!
> Slumber party with cousins!
> First viewing of "The Wizard of Oz" at the Palace Theatre!
> First ride on the TARC bus!
> First visit to Creation Gardens!
> Eric-made chocolate-chip waffle breakfast!
> Gardening at Meeb and Eric's!
> Magical traffic light changing opportunities!
> Eating lots of ginger snaps (they called the cookies "energy bars")!
I can't believe we did it all in such a short amount of time. The girls were such troopers - Explorer Girls through and through. You have to check out the photos to get an idea of the gallons of fun we had, despite the intense heat.
I'll leave you with this photo and quote from "The Wizard of Oz":
"Poppies! Poppies will make them sleep!"
P.S. Clara was worried about how Dorothy was going to get home after the hot-air balloon and the wizard floated away unexpectedly. I whispered, "She does something with her feet." Clara asked, "Does she kick down the wall?" Hee hee!
