Happy Veterans Day!
It's time for us to go home but not before Ruby has had breakfast and gone for a swim. She loves to jump off the lifeguard chair into the pool and spa. While she was waiting for us to get ready she watched cartoons. Studio C wasn't on.
We stopped at the Shell station on Orangewood and Harbor for gas and then got on the 57 freeway to the 60 and then to the 10. Traffic wasn't bad. I think Kim and Brian left a little while after we did.
When Ruby asked "What's for lunch?" we figured we should stop. We stopped at the Jack-in-the-Box in Indio. Ruby said she had never been to Jack-in-the-Box. She ordered the chicken nuggets with fries and ate everything. She said she is not allowed to go to McDonald's because her mom said. She also counts to 20 every time she washes her hands after going to the bathroom because her mom told her too. I hope she continues to be obedient!
We got Ruby home around 5pm. Her mom and dad and Lola were the only ones at home. Rowan was at Evan's and Addy was at a friends. Darrel and Trina were just getting ready to go pick them up so Ruby had to get back in the car again.
James and I both agree that going on this trip with Ruby was a blast!

On our way home James and I stopped at Mimi's because I had a coupon on my phone for a buy one entree and get the second one free. The only catch is that you have to order two drinks, which we did. James had the turkey dinner with stuffing and mashed potatoes and broccoli and I had roast beef with mashed potatoes and broccoli. Both meals were delicious, but I couldn't finish mine so I got a to go container. I also took home a pumpkin spice muffin that I will have for breakfast tomorrow.
Cathi and Terry were set apart this evening by Bishop Wanlass as indexing missionaries and will work at the old Tri-stake center in Mesa. They will serve 8 hours on Thursday and Friday each week and will serve for a year. They will be awesome! They start tomorrow morning.
