Dinner Date

My grandparents were in town for a few days this week and were staying with my aunt and uncle who live in Dallas. Last night we all went over for an evening of food and entertainment. The food was provided by Lary and Wanda - entertainment provided by Kenna! :)

My Uncle Lary has a rocking chair that belonged to his grandfather (the date carved in the bottom is 1908) and Kenna decided to make herself comfortable and look at a book. She did that for several minutes before deciding it was more fun to stand next to the rocking chair and make it rock.

Mama brought Kenna a belated birthday gift because it had not arrived in time for Kenna's birthday. Miss K really knew what to do this time with the present and jumped right into pulling the paper out of the sack!

Simba (Lary and Wanda's black lab) wanted to be a part of the action as well. Kenna LOVED Simba and kept walking up to her and petting her. Kenna laughed every time she would touch her and kept calling her ba-ba (in this case that stands for Buster - the dog at Mrs Cindy's house).

I think her favorite part of the evening was when it was time for dessert. I had taken Miss K's pajamas and her nighttime bottle so she would be all ready for bed when we left but she decided that Papa's strawberries were much more interesting than anything she already had!

She would take a bite, walk around for a bit and then come back for another bite. She would just stop by his legs and hold her mouth open, waiting for him to put something in it....and he always complied!

She crashed on the way home and hardly knew that we were taking her out of her car seat and putting her in bed. She had a great time!

When we got home last night there was a large box on our front porch. For Christmas, Amy and Charlie had given Daniel a bean bag (he has been wanting one forever!) but for various reasons, it just arrived last night. Kenna didn't see it last night, because she was already in bed, but I think she claimed it as her own this morning! She made herself quite comfortable with her glass of milk and (my phone) and settled in to watch Backyardigans while mommy was folding laundry.

Hope everyone has an excellent Saturday!!
