The girls started out the day by deciding to forgo the China Ann McClain concert because of the crowd.

When we finally got motivated we decided to go Nickelodeon Universe in the Mall

First we were pulled into the Airbrush Tattoo booth, because well ‘like mother like daughter!’ Brae’s is a hummingbird and flower.

Gillian’s is a fierce tiger! ROAR!

Then on to the rides. My kids apparently are the opposite of me. They love thrill rides like roller coasters and Detonator-type rides.

 

That is the Spongebob Roller Coaster, which my oldest rode twice. I am sure she would have kept going if I had let her.

Then we did some old-fashioned carnival games before we headed back to the hotel. Six hours of running around an amusement park in a mall is tiring!

On our way out we ran into the Brownie Elf and some of the Daisy Petals. This is Brae and I with one of them.

After that we went back to the hotel, ordered in Chinese takeout and then went swimming. We were all super tired, but in a completely awesome kind of way!
