Girls Day Out

Walter has been working out of town for the last couple of weeks.  It is lonely at home without him, and Alexa and I tend to fall into a slump when he is gone.  It seems we watch movies and let the world carry on without us while he is gone.  Because of that, we decided we were going to have a girls day out.  We went to the Thanksgiving Point Gardens.  I had a BLAST with her.  She is such a fun person to be around.  It was really cool to see the world from her point of view. 

Alexa thought it would be fun to pretend that we lived in a jungle and the gardens were our house.  We had lots of fun deciding what rooms were ours, what was the bathroom, etc.

Inside these arches was Alexa's Room...

This area was mine and Walt's room

This area was the bathroom.  There are A LOT of bathtubs in our bathroom. :)

This was our pool room--we also decided that we can push a button and beds appear in the pool area.  That way we can sleep in there when we want to relax by the pool. :)

This was the pond in our backyard.  Alexa LOVED the fish.  She was trying to get them to eat off of her stick (one actually bit!)  

By the end of the gardens, Alexa was super tired....

We then stopped and had a bite to eat from "our kitchen".  The restaurant at the gardens was delicious.  Alexa and I had fun playing with the wikki sticks they give all the kids at the restaurant.

Alexa--you are my best friend.  I love ya girl!  I had so much fun with you.  I can't wait for our next adventure together!!
