As soon as we were out of school, we headed to Marion to see Cookie and Grumps. We arrived right on time having dealt with very little traffic (yay!) and had pizza for dinner. We got up the next morning and headed to watch some local basketball before coming home to have dinner with some of the extended family. On Sunday we headed to the local whaling museum. This place is very special to Steve, and it was one of the first places he took me to when I visited his parents for the first time. The girls had a great time and we were lucky enough to have one of Steve's former teachers working as a docent. She gave us an excellent tour (we were one of the only groups of people there) and we even got to see some parts of the museum that Steve, Cookie, and Grumps had never seen.
We headed home, had some lunch, and then had some down time. All six of us headed to Red Robin for dinner (a tradition that I love, especially because my grandmother used to take us to RR) and a good time was had by all.
This visit was SO much fun. Thank you to Cookie and Grumps for hosting our little dog and pony show. We had so much fun - the girls are still talking about whales, basketball, and playing animal charades with you at "morning six."
