Last Two Days

Days 9 & 10

Yesterday Miles and I walked over to check on Stanley and the kitties in the morning, Miles was actually able to have a snuggle with this one on the couch for a couple of minutes.




After lunch the boys and I went on a little outing ourselves, first stop was at the 7-11 to get slurpees.  Bennett had to fill me in on where the 7-11 store was as I went two places first that were wrong!  From there it was on to my office to see the jail cells but unfortunately they were just bringing a prisoner in so we couldn't go down there.  I promised them I'd bring them back next week though as they were quite keen to check it out.  

Then a place that Bennett and I have in common that we like - Walmart.  He was scoping out the newest Lego set and he managed to find one so it was a good thing he brought his wallet!



In the evening we went out to the front yard to try a science experiment using Mento mints and Coke - as soon as the first Mento went in the Coke started foaming up and out until most of it was gone.  We were hoping it would spray far up into the air but no such luck.








A couple of monkeys hanging out in our tree out front!  Nice work guys.


Day 10 - last day

We've had a pretty good run here all four of us, with only a couple of 'incidents' - we'll call them.  This morning was the final opening from the 'surprise every day' bags Mom left them.




They traded and shared extremely well, it was something for them to help count the days.



Bennett's going to Jester's Theatre at Northview Church this week in the mornings so after dropping him off I went home to organize and pack their things.  Jen, Rick and Ruby are home this afternoon from their European vacation - they'll be so happy to be all together again.  We've had a great ten days with Bennett and Miles here, we'll definitely sign up to do it again!
