We have been helping Leah and Todd with their move from St. Louis to Plano to McKinney. They have been living in a two bedroom apartment (to the left, top floor, above the satellite dish) in an interesting area-----kind of a "new" urban environment with shops, hotels, restaurants. Dave said it reminded him of Europe.
We occasionally have had to improvise using a crate and a pillow so Anna had a TV seat.
We had a lot of fun with the kids while Todd and Leah closed on their house and welcomed the movers.
Leah and Todd came home the first night while Dave and I stayed at the Marriott diagonally across the street.
We took the kids to IKEA for breakfast. . .
Anna and I did a little shopping. . .
While Eli played in their childcare area and Grandpa read upstairs with free coffee refills.
After naps, we went swimming in the apartment pool.
Due to some miscommunication, I couldn't find their water vests so had to use that old swim lesson trick of letting one in the water at a time.
There was plenty of Grandpa lap-sitting. Please note Anna's "baby" a white rat we found at IKEA.
We also enjoyed the lake in front of their apartment (and the Marriott) and the kids proudly showed me their "sandbox." Hopefully Leah cleaned out the cigarette butts before she let the kids play.
