Grandma and Grandpa Cerha are in town visiting, and we were going to go to Inks Lake State Park to go hiking and letterboxing. If we had time, we were even going to go swimming in Inks Lake. We watched the weather close this morning, and the weatherlady said that it probably wasn't going to rain until tonight. So we gave Max and Jack early naps and even ate lunch early. Grandma and Grandpa went to their hotel to get their swimsuits on and then all of a sudden... BOOM! It was pouring down rain. It rained for about 30 minutes.
Rainy, wet weather isn't conducive to hiking, so we decided to go with Plan B-- bowling. So we all packed into VanGo and drove to the bowling alley. We knew we were in trouble when the parking lot was full. So I ran inside and every lane was taken... it was Sunday League Day.
So bowling was out, and we decided to move to Plan C-- Rockhoppers (an arcade/fun-center). We drove into the parking lot and knew we were in trouble when there weren't ANY cars in the parking lot. It wasn't open yet and wouldn't be for 20 minutes more. So we drove home.
So hiking, bowling and the arcade were all out. We moved on to Plan D-- the movies. Fortunately, going to the movies is pretty foolproof. As I type this, Grandma, Grandpa, Connor, Mason, Avery and Marney are all at the theater watching Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs. Kiki got in trouble and couldn't go, and Gabe went and saw it with me and Mommio on his birthday.
While they're gone, Mommio, Gabe, Max and I decided to decorate the house for Halloween. It's pretty sweet looking.
So even though we didn't get to do our first, second or even third choices for the day, it still turned out pretty good.

I am so glad that you finally had a good plan that worked. We are here and having a good time. Uncle Joe is going up in the balloon with Popo and me...Aunt Linda is going sit on the ground crying waiting for us to die.
