Play date on a school night???

Yes, I allowed Damon to have a little play date with his friend Riley, you know the cute blond that is in a few of the other blogs?

Anyways, these kids are like best friends. They ask for each other all of the time and finally I set it up with Riley's parents to let the kids play after school.

Everyday this week Damon would ask, "when are we getting Riley?" and today was the day. I picked Damon up from school and we headed to Riley's school to pick her up. As soon as Damon walked in her classroom, Riley ran over to him and gave him a big hug. I loaded the kids in the car and because it was still too cold outside I decided to take them to McDonald's to eat and play on the indoor playground. I called my friend Erin and my cousin Christina to meet me there with their kids too and they did. I think we stayed until 8:00 and then I took the kids to Walgreen's. As I was picking up some essentials the kids found a small toy that they wanted and because they were so well behaved tonight I decided to buy each of them one. After Walgreen's I took them to brusters to get some ice cream. They were really excited about that but it was much colder now that it was about 8:30 so I pulled right up to the front, rolled the windows down and ordered our ice cream. Because the kids are under 40 inches tall they get a free cone so as I was ordering I pointed to the car (with the window down) to show the lady that I had two kids. As I pointed you could see the kids start to wave to her. It was so cute. They had their ice cream devoured by the time we got to Riley's house.

When it was time for Riley to go home they were not very pleased about it, but the didn't whine either. They were so good and I am so proud of both of them. Unfortunately I did not have my camera with me tonight so I did not get any pictures. :(

We do have a surprise for the kids so check out next weekends blog to find out what it is...
