The McMillins

The other night we went to a Japanese Steakhouse. It was Gretchen's first time going. It was really cool watching the guy cook in front of us and especially the fire that he had go right in front of us. Plus, he made a volcano out of an onion. It was fun and interesting. Zach seemed to really enjoy it. We went with our friends, Mike and Kim, and their 2 girls who are age 6 and 4. Zach seems to really like playing with their 2 girls.

There's a movie theatre that has free movies on Tuesday and Wednesday mornings during the summer for the kids. So, yesterday we went to see the movie "Polar Express". Gretchen brought some snacks for Zach in case he wasn't interested in the movie but he did really well. It was his first time at a movie theatre and he didn't budge once! He watched the ENTIRE movie and didn't want it to end when it did end. We think the big screen and the good movie contributed to his paying attention to it.

Corey got his birthday present early! Gretchen and Zach gave him a stainless steel grill. The old grill started smoking and almost burned the house down. So, we got him the grill that he wanted.
