Well today certainly didn’t go as planned…
We woke up to some heavy rain with storms overnight. Scott wasn’t feeling good so he slept in
trying to ward off a migraine. The kids
played quietly while I did my devotions.
We had breakfast and based on the
rainy weather forecast, decided that we would see a movie at 2:00 pm. We were scheduled to go zip-lining at 6:00 so it
would all time out perfectly.
I used the few hours we had to get caught up on some emails
and computer work. Scott nursed his
headache and the kids did their homework and played.
We decided to eat snacks at the movie and then a hearty meal
at 4:00 pm on our way to the zip line place.
However, when we arrived at the theater, the movie was completely sold
out. So, disappointed and really hungry
we walked across the parking lot to Five Guys and ate lunch at 2:00 pm.
After that we headed back to the RV. Scott took a nap while I watched the weather…
we had severe storms coming in and 2 confirmed tornadoes. We called the zip line company prior to our
leaving and they decided to cancel our trip.
So, we hung out for a little while longer before deciding to try a new
restaurant for dinner.
We landed at a local Pizzeria that the neighbor Mr Doolittle
recommends and it was AMAZING! Everyone
raved about our meal… and it was just a pepperoni pizza!!! They even brought out dough for the kids to
play with while we waited and then baked and covered them with cinnamon sugar
for dessert. It was fun!
We purchased tickets online for another showing of Minions
so we wouldn’t run into the same issues we had earlier. So we rushed over to the theater right after
dinner, only to wait in line 15 minutes.
When we finally headed into the theater we were so incredibly frustrated
to find not even a single seat available.
The manager apologized and gave us vouchers to return later in the week.
Sammy and Tyler handed it like a rock star! We decided to play mini golf instead. So we wandered around the mall to the entry
to get prepped to play. EXCEPT that
there was an incredibly long backup at the first four holes so we decided not
to stay.
Ugh! We grabbed the
Jeep and drove across the street to another course and actually got to
play! Finally, something went right!
After golfing, we headed home for bed. Its been a disappointing day but we made the
best of it. And very likely, the slow
schedule and down time is just what we needed!
