It was Presidents Day today, so we slept in and took it easy throughout the day. Daddy did write a message today for the dinosaur series, the last one actually, so there was that. This one took a few days to finish, as some don't exactly download instantly. This one's points came every two days, so it took actually about a week to finish up, but I'm excited about it. Imagine doing a Biblical three-point message inspired by an ankylosaur. That's pretty crazy.
It was my favorite dinosaur growing up. Madison says her favorite dinosaurs are the raptors, which didn't really make anyone's top ten list when Daddy was a kid. You could thank Jurassic Park for that much. Jurassic Park III gave us the Spinosaurus, which is the topic of another message too. These are all pretty good, and one cool note: we spoke with a guy who owns that Jurassic Park explorer you may have seen on this blog before. We'll be working with him soon, making videos for KidPak. Yeah, that'll be pretty awesome.
Speaking of awesome, today we saw "Lego Movie 2" over in Cumming, and it was indeed awesome. In fact, one of the lines in the movie was "Make Everything Awesome Again," which I'm sure would upset some politically leaning folks. But hopefully their fury was abated by the presence of a LEGO Ruth Bader Ginsburg, which was a completely random and hilarious moment. There was a lot to laugh and cheer at in this movie - all three of us really enjoyed it. It's funny how big of a deal the LEGO movies and Frozen movies became for Madison a few years ago, both released within two months of each other. And here we are again with both sequels - the one for "Frozen" will be released at the end of the year.
After the movie, we went to Chili's again, using up another one of Madison's gift certificates she earned for good grades. We tried the new location in Dawsonville which was okay, but not as good as over in Gainesville. Still, it was a pretty decent and filling meal, one we all enjoyed.
We got home, and there was piano to go to for Madison. She was practicing beforehand, and that's sounding good. In piano, she's learning a new song that she describes as a "haunted twinkle little star" song, a new one we can't wait to hear.
Tonight we had a bit of Star Wars, by Madison's choice. We did Star Wars Monopoly first, one where the forces of good (Mommy and Madison) absolutely crushed Kylo Ren (Daddy), dominating the galaxy. At least for now. But I'll be back, you hear me? I'LL BE BACK!!!!
The Star Wars theme continued as we finished up last season's "Rebels Recon" episodes, and started with four episodes back-to-back-to-back-to-back of "Star Wars Rebels." We also read tonight, moving along with the devotional, and actually reading enough to finish the Peter Pan book. But Madison and Mommy want more, so I imagine we'll be starting on some of the other books there are in this series, including the shorter ones next, followed by the later two longer novels. We're all about Neverland lately!
It was actually a great day today, yes, I'd go as far as to say an awesome one. Everything is still awesome!
