Last night, we went to dinner at a very cool restaurant in the woods to take advantage of such a beautiful evening. We had a table by the railing on the second floor balcony, and it was just a perfect spot. Ariana was enchanted (obsessed?) with the pepper shaker and was standing in Josh's lap peppering the table. Then all of a sudden, she takes one look at the railing and then hurls the pepper shaker right over the railing!
At the time, she was a good two or three feet from the railing. One attempt and GONE! We rushed over to the railing to see where it had landed, but we couldn't see it. Fortunately, there was no shattered glass on the sidewalk, which hopefully meant it was in the dirt beneath a plant.
So Josh took Ariana downstairs to search for the flying pepper shaker. They found it beneath a fern, intact! Go, Pepper Shaker! So, Ariana took the pepper shaker, grinned up at me (I was watching from our table), then flung the pepper shaker into the dirt again, grinning with absolute delight.
No, she didn't drop it. She HURLED it.
The girl was on a mission to bury that sucker neck deep in dirt if it was the last thing she did that night.
Needless to say, Josh commandeered the pepper shaker after he retreived it a second time (fortunately, it was right by his foot so he didn't have to go far), but not before we both told Ariana that she had a great arm.
She agreed.
