Fun with GG!

A couple weeks ago GG came for a visit.  We were busy nonstop.  GG got here on Wednesday afternoon.  We went for a later lunch at one of our favorite burger places...Mighty Fine.  Pearce loves cheeseburgers and ate pretty much all of his :)  During GG's visit, we went to the Body Worlds exhibit here in Cedar Park.  I've been wanting to go to this and thought Pearce would like it.  The exhibit is all about your body and how it functions from birth to death.  It shows actual cadavers who have gone through a plasticisation (sp?) process where every bit of the body looks like plastic but they were actual people.  It was really interesting and Pearce was excited to see the "dead people" but then they started to scare him, so I went with him to the gift shop while GG finished looking at everything and then we switched and I got to finish looking at the exhibit.  GG and I both thought it was really neat.  Pearce loved the gift shop and of course, GG got him a couple special things including "Marty the Martian."  Marty is almost as big as Pearce and can stand up all by himself.  Pearce LOVES him.  After Body Worlds, we went to to Luby's for lunch and Pearce wanted to bring Marty inside :)  One day we decided to go bowling which Pearce usually loves.  But from the get-go, Pearce wasn't happy.  We were going to go to Main Event, but when we got there, it was closed to the public for a party.  Pearce was sooooo upset about that.  So, we went to a different bowling alley in Georgetown, but he was still upset about Main Event being closed.  No matter what I did, I could not get him out of his foul mood.  Finally, we decided to order lunch and I got him a personal size cheese pizza.  Once he ate a couple slices, his mood immediately changed and he was a happy boy.  Poor thing was just hungry.  After that, we all had a blast bowling!  One day we went to Barton Creek Mall for me to do some birthday shopping....I scored big time.....thanks GG!!!!  Each night Pearce slept with GG which, I think they both loved and each morning, Pearce would watch GG put on her makeup....so funny!  We took GG to get a snow cone at Bahama Bucks and Pearce ended up with a blue mouth.  GG also got Pearce the game Hungry, Hungry Hippos.  Oh my goodness, Pearce loves playing this game, but he also cheats a little too and he MUST get the last marble!  We had lots of fun playing with GG.  When GG left the following Wednesday, Pearce sad :(  He said his favorite thing was getting to sleep with her!  Thanks for a fun visit, GG!!!!
