On this day, we got up from Ana & Charley's to head home, but first, we were going to spend the day in McKinney. Since I follow a bunch of mom bloggers who live in McKinney, I have fallen in love with their downtown area and always want to try out every place they play, eat, attend holiday events, etc. Of course, we couldn't do all of that, but we did decide to take the kids to Playstreet Museum and then have lunch and shop in Downtown McKinney. I'll let the pictures do the talking.
First, we left Ana and Charley, all dressed up in more 4th of July outfits, because I think they are my favorite to buy every year!
Then, we stopped at Playstreet Museum and it was so impressive! By the time Vic and I left, we were pretty convinced that if we had the money and the time, we needed to open one in College Station. It would be a money maker and College Station needs kid things to do! So, there are more and more of these opening in DFW and they all have a theme. This one was a farm/home/small town kind of theme. I think Grace enjoyed it the most because it gave her so many ways to use her imagination! Everly was just starting to walk, so she had fun too. And, Atticus, even though he was older, loved the books and puzzles and drawing and still some of the play areas.
And in these photos, please don't mind Grace. She was a very busy girl: she had to sweep the floors, iron the clothes, cook the dinner, milk the cows, put on her work clothes, take care of the kids...it was my favorite thing to watch and all I wanted was to move to McKinney so I could take her here all the time and watch her sweet little self pretend and play for hours and hours. She also had Everly's help of course. But, really - this little house area was so cute and had all of the details for a little home.
After that, we headed to Downtown to eat lunch at a cute little place, whose name I don't remember. But, I can never pass up a delicious grilled cheese sandwich and tomato soup. Yum! And then, we explored the shops and streets. We even found an old-time candy store! And of course, I took this opportunity to take some 4th of July pictures!
I just love these photos below!
We headed home, hot and tired, and having had great memories of our Camp Erwin Trip 2017!
