Family Fun Day

Today we loaded up and went to the Indianapolis Children's Museum. I was so excited because we were able to purchase a membership (thanks Papa Rudd)! We can now go up on the weekends when Todd is working and during the week as a family in the summer. (Hey Laura, how about getting together with the kids for a play date there soon?)

All in all it was a fun trip. They have the Yule slide for winter - this consists of a huge slide that they have put over the stairs going up to the second floor. Nicolas decided that he wanted to race me down the slide. We stood in line for about 15 minutes while Todd took Grace to the Playscape for smaller children. Nicolas could hardly stand the excitement as we approached the slide. They put down a fabric piece for you to sit on and slide. Well, about 1/3 of the way down the slide I have no idea how, but I lost my fabric and ended up having to scoot the rest of the way down. Talk about embarrassing! Nicolas said it was because I must have been too fat for the slide. (I think he overheard me saying that to Todd in an attempt to get him to go instead.)

Grace loved the carousel - they went three times, and both kids loved the dino exhibit. I am thrilled that we can go more often now. We have room for 2 guests any time that anyone wants to join us!

After we left, the weather was getting crummy, so we took a few detours to avoid traffic accidents on the way home. It was so slick that Todd even took a tumble on a sidewalk and hit his head (he's okay).

We are all now home and getting ready for the Christmas events that approach.


From our family to yours - Merry Christmas!
