I want to go to Friendlys!

One of the gifts KC asked for from his Nana was a gift card to his favorite restaurant.  Friendlys is his place of choice for brunch as he loves their breakfasts.  He will eat like a stsevedore there and this is a good thing as he goes through spells where I swear he lives on air.  It makes K and I crazy as while he probably is fine, his build is lighter than that of the other kids and we are always afraid he isn't getting enough food for healthy growth.  Yesterday, he wanted to cash in the gift card he got the day before--he is  not into delayed gratification at this point in life!--and we set off.  I have to say it was a lot of fun.  I don't usually get to go with them as it is typically a weekday thing for the kids and K.  There was not a table big enough for our brood so they gave us two booths which were across from each other. Copious quantities of pancakes, french toast, home fries and eggs in various cooking styles were consumed.  (I had juevos rancheros for those who are wondering!)

It was really cute because KC got to pay for the meal himself.  He very carefully carried the little sleeve that has the bill in it up to the register and gave her his gift card.  He was so grown up; it was a portent of the future as he will be 9 this spring!
