We went to church and Sunday school this morning and then met mom and my grandparents at Bob Evans for brunch (well, for us it was lunch!). If we have the opportunity to go there, Ian always asks if he can get the Mickey Mouse sundae (peanut butter cups for the ears, cherry for the nose, whipped cream, ice cream and chocolate syrup) and I always tell him NO (because I am not paying!). Well, he happened to be the lucky one to sit next to my grandfather who just so happened to hear the request. Pop-pop looks at me and says, "He wants that for dessert? Well, it's the holiday season and if he wants it, then he can get it!" Okay, I guess so! LOL I told the boys if they ate their pancakes then they could order them for dessert. Well, I actually got to eat my lunch with no kids hanging onto my arms. They were focused on those pancakes!!!!! When the waitress brought out their desserts you would have thought it was Christmas morning! Ian ate the entire thing and even picked it up and drank the melted ice cream at the bottom! Good to the last drop I guess! Gavin immediately ate the chocolate and wanted the whipped cream OFF! He wanted to get to the ice cream.
So, there we were...eating a great meal and the Manager (Leslie) came over to give a card to "The Dawson Family" and she made it clear to him that it was meant for the FAMILY! hahahahaha She wrote a really nice note. We all get the royal treatment at Bob Evans!
Needless to say Gavin had a great nap. LOL We did some yardwork and then when Cailean got home we headed over to mom's for dinner. Cailean and I escaped for a little bit to do some Christmas shopping at a nearby shopping center. Mom made a good dinner and a yummy dessert, then back home for baths and bedtime!
It's the last week of school for the kids before break and I have work, too. Lots of Christmas parties, gift giving, etc. Gavin and I will be heading to the post office in the morning! Hope there won't be a line!!!!!
