Horse Stables Kids Morning Out

We had a fun morning out with Megan a few weeks ago. Dillon and I picked Megan up and went to Cash Lovell Stables for a fun time playing with bubbles, hoola hoops, and going on pony rides. We were there with Emily, Jackson and Lily - but I didn't get a picture with them!

Megan was REALLY good at the hoola hoops. :)

On pony ride #1

Megan would have stood there and brushed this pony all day...she loved it!

A snack after a fun morning!

Visit to Aunt Sarah!

We took the second half of spring break and went up to Fairfax, VA to visit Aunt Sarah. Her birthday was April 1st (24 years young!) and we were excited to celebrate with her. We took a day around Fairfax..did some shopping, visited Sarah's classroom, and went out to eat. Then we went to the Air and Space Museum in Washington on Saturday. What a fun day! The weather was wishy washy, and we had to walk in the rain on the way to the museum and wait in line for a loooong time at the bathroom...but it was worth it! The sun was shining when we left thankfully. :)
The museum was a lot of fun. The kids really enjoyed seeing the airplanes, rockets, and information about space. We walked over to the White House after the museum. Long, but fun day!

Waiting for the bathroom......

 

 

Love this picture! Sitting under the nose of an airplane - see their reflections. Bridget's expression is priceless. LOL

 

 

Bridget got to be a helper in one of the mini-programs about air flow.

 

 

HA...the sun was in their eyes. I couldn't get a good picture without eyes closed or squinty eyes.

 

 

After a long day we walked over to see the White House before heading back to the car. This was as close as we could get.

 

 

Endless mirrors in the bathroom at the Ronald Reagan International Bldg. We parked the car here...and it was 4 levels UNDERGROUND!

Marbles Museum - Raleigh 3-29-11

Wow! How do I write a blog post without posting a million pictures? We had such a fun time at the Marbles Museum in Raleigh...way back at the end of March during spring break. We went with Emily, Grace, Jackson and Lily and had the BEST time. It's definitely a museum we will be going back to...lots of fun. I went through the pictures and had trouble just picking a few...but I did. The highlights - a pretend ambulance, a dressup theater, a pirate ship, a fun ball play area, a lemonade stand, an awesome hockey arena, surfers, giant chess, a bus to drive, and woodworking! This museum has it all.
