Draya's First "Real" Hair Cut

Draya had her first haircut at a salon today. All that she has had up until now is bangs cuts by Mommy. We went to Beaners in Sh. Park. She got to sit in a Barbie car and she had a braid with beads put in. Unfortunately Mommy forgot the camera. She also had great fun playing with another little girl in the ball area.
Afer Beaners we went to Millenuim Place, had lunch, went swimming in the wave pool and played in their indoor play area.
A pretty nice afternoon all in all!

Chuck E Cheese

We went to Chuck E Cheese for the first time. We went for Draya's friend from daycare's birthday party. When you arrive they stamp glow under fluorescent light numbers on the kids and parents wrists so that people can't leave with children that don't belong with them. I guess that it's a nice security feature, odd but nice.
There are loads of games and little rides and such that you need tokens to play (the birthday hostess supplies some thankfully) and most everything spits out ticket that can be redeemed for 'prizes'. Draya and Daddy played a lot. Mommy sat with the grown-ups.
The pizza smelled great but tasted mediocre at best. The birthday cake was good.
There was a 'show' where all the kids were encouraged to participate (Draya didn't) and of course there was someone in a Chuck E Cheese mouse costume who leads all of the kids in a parade around the restaurant. Draya didn't like the mouse. She hid under the table.
We redeemed Draya's tickets for some little tattoos. She really liked those and has already had me put some on her arms.
All in all it was an okay experience but thanks to the giant mouse I don't think Draya will be asking to back any time soon. Mommy is okay with that. Although maybe their salad bar is better than their pizza.
We didn't take any pictures.

Draya Does Devon

Draya went to Devon Days with Nana & Papa this past Friday.

There was lots of yummy food. For dinner Draya had a taco & for dessert she enjoyed lemonade and mini dough nuts.


On the midway she rode her first 'spinny' ride.


She also enjoyed driving a truck.



She and Nana fished for lizzards,

and rode the train together.

Draya rode the trian twice. The second time she got to ring the bell!

She rode the fishy ride twice too.

That night we camped with Nana & Papa in their 5th wheel. Nana bough Draya some new jammies and a toothbrush. Here she models both while jumping on her bed.
