Grandkid’s Summer 2013 Vacation #2–Update #4

On Sunday, our plan was to take the kids to the water park again while Deanne and Mike continued to work at the new house.  We woke up to the usual….. Aubrey and Matthew already awake, with Aubrey having her bed made up, and Matthew not in gear yet!!!!

Once we got the Bus in order, we headed over to Deanne and Mike’s to pick up Rachel.  This time, we forgot to pickup her life preserver, but we decided to go without it, and just watch her closer.  We spend only a short time at the kiddee pool, and then got some chairs around the wave pool………

Like Saturday, we stayed in the water for about 4—5 minutes, and then went home to rest.  We dropped Rachel off at her house, and then went to the Bus to get dressed for Sunday night dinner.  The restaurant that we originally chose was closed on Sunday night, so we ended at at NYPD Pizza, a place where we had eaten before.  Matthew had been wanting pizza for a couple of days, but he was confused by the pizzas being called “PIES” on the menu.  In addition to the Manhattan pizza (pepperoni, beef and bacon) that the kids had, they had other really good Italian dishes.  Mike and I had chicken parmesan and it was delicious!

Matthew continued to be confused and kept waiting for his Pie to come as a desert!!!!

To make the pizza, the chef tossed the dough for the crust to make the round shape.  The kitchen was directly behind Rachel.  It was hard to catch the tossing action with my iPhone camera, but they were making so many pizzas,  I managed to catch some of the dough in the air…….

I also focused on Rachel at dinner……….
