Grandkid’s Summer 2013 Vacation #2–Update #5

Monday was a different kind of day.  The kids actually decided that they wanted a day off from swimming…. which was a good thing because it looked like a thunderstorm day.

We went to Rachel’s house and dropped the kids off to play with her, while Patsy and I went shopping at Sam’s Club and Wal-Mart to restock the Bus before our trip on Tuesday to the Crater of Diamonds State Park in Murfreesboro, AR.

We got back about1:00PM, and Deanne left to take her dog, Izzey, to the Vet for shots.  While she was gone, we all played with Rachel and some of the toys that we brought to her that used to belong to Aubrey.

I also caught her when she was quiet and restful………….

We had planned on a hamburger cookout at Deanne’s, but the weather was still stormy, so we opted to eat out again.  We went to a hamburger and shake place called “The Purple Cow”, a place where both Aubrey and Matthew had been before and liked it.  They have some of the best hamburgers in town, and make really good milk shakes, and in Aubrey’s case, purple ice cream!!

After dinner, we said our goodbyes to Mike, Deanne and Rachel for two days, and went home to ready the Bus for the 100 mile trip to the Crater of Diamonds State Park on Tuesday for a two-day stay.  We will return to Little Rock to take care of Rachel again on the weekend.
