Sunday, August 19


Nora and I drove in with Nana and Grandpaw to visit John for the day. Nora and I made a ham and cheese quiche for lunch, and for a special treat, I made brownies for dessert. Nora had a fabulous time sharing a homemade meal with Daddy. Then, after he was finished with therapy for the day, we took him on a short walk to the Lake Shore Park (a block north of RIC).
Yes, she's playing on the playground with pink sparkly sunglasses and pink sequined shoes
(she was reluctant to go on the wood chips in these shoes).
We had hoped to watch part of the Air and Water show, but couldn’t see much (though we could certainly hear the jets overhead!). Nora didn’t mind, however – she had a great time playing at the park, particularly “doing gymnastics” (which involved me holding her up as she twisted around on the bars).
Notice Nora's rock star pose...
Grandpaw remembered to have a picture taken of the three of us on our first trip out together:
Back in RIC, while John and I checked his email, Nora appropriated his wheelchair for a hallway excursion (sorry I missed a photo of that) before curling up in it to watch The Princess Diaries. Then we headed out – us for dinner, leaving John to take a nap.

Nora and I took Nana and Grandpaw to Pizano’s for Chicago Pizza:

When we got home and called to say goodnight, John was watching his Steelers.
