We decided against the more
presidential options for Presidents Day and instead took the girls to a movie. Well, Ben stayed home with Oliver and worked on taxes and I took the girls to see
The Secret World of Arrietty. I think I won that deal. We absolutely loved the movie. It really sparked the girls' imaginations. Such a nice change from so many loud and in-your-face kids movies.
Ben needed some fun so he took us all swimming at the Rec Center after dinner and treated the girls to ice cream. Oliver was unbelievably happy (and adventurous) in the water. Amelia and Elsa wouldn't stop talking about how lucky they were to go to a movie AND go swimming in the same day.
