On Friday after work/school we went to Central Park, a favorite nearby playground. Then we got Noodles and Company takeout and went home and watched the movie Ramona and Beezus (so cute). After that, we piled into 'the big bed', with the girls in their sleeping bags camping style, and had a family sleepover.
On Saturday we took Piper to Taekwondo, and then went to see the Emoji movie.
After the movie, we made a quick stop at Target. This ended up being a much more eventful stop than we anticipated. Teagan got lost. Well, okay, it was a little bit more premeditated than that. Teagan ran away. If you've ever wondered what it means when they declare a 'code yellow' at Target, I can fill you in. It means a kid's gone missing, a parent is frantic, they've shut down the exits, and a virtual army of khaki and red clad soldiers has formed an admirably organized search party.
All's well that ends well, and in the end all three McAveys returned home in the minivan. Some of us may have been a little more wary (me), a little more diligent (me), and a teensy bit angry (also me), but we were all safe and sound and that's what matters most. I applaud Target for their well executed 'code yellow' protocol, and as always am a loyal and satisfied customer.
On Sunday, we woke up bright and bushy-tailed and headed to... the Crayola Experience at the Mall of America. Post about that adventure to follow immediately :)
