Then as a special treat, we went to the nearest McDonald's so Nora could romp about in the play structure. (Sidenote: In an effort to discourage our kids from liking fast food, when we drive by a McDonalds, we sometimes tell her that the food there is "yucky." The other day in Visalia she spied a McDonalds and said, "Gramma told me McDonalds was good, not yucky." Well, I guess if Gramma says so... :) Anyway, after a good 15 minutes of a power struggle (we wanted her to heat her food before playing, she did not) she got a time out, which was apparently enough to knock down her pride and get her to eat, and Grandpa gleefully climbed all around the play structure with her.
And thanks Mom and Dad for our date night! You're the best!

You mean to tell me you were in Fairfield and you guys didn't call us? Well I hope all is well. We miss your cute family. We really need to get together sometime soon. Give that sweet baby boy a kiss from me and Nora a big hug from Sydnee! :0)
Ha Ha! Funny. As far as my kids know, the only thing McDs sells is french fries... which is the occasional treat. Not the healthiest, I know.
