On our last full day in Mansfield, we did more of the same things, like canoing and biking. Stana, Alice and I went to take a bunch of stuff to a thrift store and Alice bought a bunch of shirts there. It was ironic because we were bringing home tons of name-brand hand-me-downs from my sister's kids, and yet here was Alice so excited about thrift store shirts. That and a quick trip to the grocery store took most of the morning. In the afternoon she did a trail-ride with grandpa. Simon mostly fished and kayaked all day, plus some swimming off the dock. In the evening we did sparklers. It was another great day.
On Wednesday morning we packed up to head to Kentucky to visit uncle Pete. While we got all the stuff loaded up, Simon made a boat in the basement workshop with grandpa and examined Nelson's tackle box, and Alice watched videos with Stana.
(Let's all work on our picture posture for next year, eh? Stana is the only one sitting up straight.)
