Day Eight

Today was low key, it was raining quite a bit in the morning, but we did venture out to my parents house and worked on planting some plants for my mom and other projects.  Miss Meghan also learned a bit about etiquette after receiving a multitude of gifts for her birthday.  We also got some use out of our CTA bus pass.  Not every day of the summer of fun can be full of excitement and thrills.  But it is important to get some quality time with new birthday presents and even to occasionally watch Who Wants to be a Millionaire.
