Stay-Cation Day Two

So today was day Two of the "wish we had different circumstances so we could go on our long-planned vacation" experience. Overall, I've felt better today than yesterday, though still very tired and emotionally kind of depressed. I'm hoping that someday we look back on some of these pictures and laugh at this weekend of trying so hard to make the best of something when we all wished we were someplace else!

I haven't felt up to cooking much so we've been eating out a lot.

No one complains about lunch at Pizza Hut.

We've discovered Nora's love for silverware. She'll eat almost anything if it's speared on a fork and handed to her that way. Of course sometimes she puts the wrong end in her mouth...

Tonight we went for a crowd pleaser and took the kids to Logan's (aka the Peanut Restaurant).

Nora discovered the bucket of peanuts...

But with only 8 teeth and no molars no one was dumb enough to let her actually eat any.

After the P.R. we stopped by Captain Sundae, an old college hangout for us and enjoyed some ice cream together.

Carolyn was really into the pink ice cream (you can even see little droplets of it on her eyelashes!)

She shared quite a bit with her sister... obviously.

After this we took the girls to the beach, which was actually really fun and deserves its own post.
