Friends, Program, Museum...

Friends

We've had an active couple of weeks here. We had the privilege of catching up with some old friends who were in town a couple weekends ago. We had such fun. 


How cute are these little ladies? Abigail and Jayla had lots of fun playing - so much fun in fact - that they are supposed to be winding down for bed. However, they were instead quite wound up and giddy.:)

Program

Abigail had an Easter program at her school. She of course did awesome. She's such a good little singer/performer. 




Here she is painting her cross (the craft after the program).


 Donald Duck?


Silly Jackson (actually silly Daddy). Jackson got his pants wet during dinner, so John improvised "pants". I don't know why but he reminds me of Donald Duck here. :)

Children's Museum

The kids and I took advantage of our slower schedules this week - Spring Break for both Abigail's school and BSF. We went to the Children's Museum. Had a great time, but apparently it was spring break for a lot of schools! :) It was CRAZY! Thankfully the kids were well-prepared to obey momma and stay close! They did great.


Oh the beloved bulldozer. Jackson was in heaven.




Jackson assessing all the parts. :) Honestly, I was just breathing sighs of relief that Jackson was sharing so well (especially with his sister!). 


Another reason I really wanted to go was for the Hot Wheels exhibit. I knew Jackson would LOVE this, and we hadn't seen it yet. I was right - it was a hit. However, it was surprisingly really fun for Abigail too!



The entry way to the exhibit was so cool with all kinds of little cars, lit up. Frankly, I think Jackson would have been content with just this. I had a hard time getting him past this - he even kept going back to it. :)




Racing their cars.




Abigail getting ready to race. She looks intense!






The motorcycles were very cool. The kids were so funny on them. They really took them seriously and got into it!


Don't ask me where she has seen these stunts - lying on the seat with her legs behind!?









They had a car where you could pretend to wash and put decals on - the kids LOVED it. 


You could also pretend to drive. Too cool!




At the end of the day we were all exhausted and sticky (bribery/treat for leaving - juice and cotton candy). However, I feel like this is a sign for "a good time had by all." :)
