I must confess to feeling like a bit of a cheat pulling this challenge today because there were no dirty dishes in our sink, no clean dishes to put away and the bathroom got cleaned yesterday. The best part is we had plans to be out of the house playing all day so no meals at home thus no dirty dishes. I definitely got this challenge on the right day.
Since there's nothing to share about the challenge, I'll share highlights of our day. Maya's "Gotcha Day" was Saturday. Since we were so busy all weekend and were unable to celebrate it, we planned to celebrate today as we all had the day off together. Maya got to decide where to go and what to do. First stop, Umami Burger in Santa Monica where Maya got a Manly Burger. While eating my not-so-tasty beet salad, (not eating meat as part of this challenge), I enviously watched her eat the juicy burger. The tempura onion rings nearly made up for it. After lunch we headed to Venice Beach where we walked around, went into some shops, and walked barefoot and played in the sand. Then we headed to Santa Monica pier and played at the amusement park. We all rode the ferris wheel and watched the sunset. Heading toward home, we stopped at our favorite El Coyote for dinner. Maya has loved that place since she was a baby. For dessert, our last stop was House of Pies in Los Feliz. Maya loves pie.
What a fun day. Whew, I'm exhausted.
