Last week while inside at the Gwinnett Campus, another car messed up the front of our parked car. Fortunately, it wasn't a hit-and-run, and there's insurance to take care of things. This brings us to today, when Daddy dropped the car off at a body shop, and picked up a rental they offered: a Nissan Maxima. It's actually a fun little car, and front has a lot of little lights and buttons, reminding me of Michael Knight's famous words in the Knight Rider pilot: "It looks like Darth Vader's bathroom."
Or something like that. I was pretty young at the time, and the line struck me as funny. Anyway, today was a day to write for our next series, so we watched the movie "Cars 3," and in that we found some great points to talk about at KidPak, so much so that we'll probably be doing this message on a Sunday in July. The entire church does a "At the Movies" series in the main sanctuary, so we're following suit with a movie series ourselves, this time one that does not have a superhero theme, but rather the theme of simply "movies." We're doing "Wonder," "Cars 3," "Trolls," and "The Greatest Showman."
So tonight we were watching "Cars 3," and I forgot just how much I liked this movie. I'm pretty close to saying I like it better than the first "Cars" movie, just based on its theme and pacing. Anyway, that'll be fun to talk about in July.
Daddy wrote the message outline today, amongst other things. Madison was busy today too: doing a bit more on her painting-by-numbers creation. She and Mommy were mixing their own paints, and it's a slow and tedious process to color in each area, but she's going slow and steady to a finish line that we'll hopefully reach within a week or so.
We went to the pool tonight, which was a little busy, but it's still refreshing. It was later tonight, so the sunlight wasn't as direct upon us, which is good. It was still warm, and the water felt great too. Madison loves splashing Daddy. We were playing catch and "Marco Polo" for a short while, and then heading back home for dinner.
Madison did some piano today, although not in any specific direction. There is the goal of playing "A Million Dreams" by the end of the summer, but there's no specific deadline approaching, or grocery list of things to do. Speaking of which, we did do some grocery shopping today, the three of us. Quite a bit of groceries, too! It's been a while since we went out to shopping, so we were a bit behind. Fortunately, most of it fit in the rental car's trunk! It was quite a bit.
So the pacing is slowing down a bit from the last week, although there's still plenty of writing to do at the moment. But it's all balanced out, and we're enjoying the summer. Throw in some restful days like today, and I think we'll be just fine...
