Day off with Daddy....

Mike had today, President's Day, off from work. So, we made it a family day. We went and saw our little baby nephew this morning (as you will see further down on posts). Then, we took the boys out to lunch which they loved. After lunch, we headed to the Magic House, which was the big treat! That place is absolutely amazing. There are so many cool things to do there....slides, tunnels, climbing "vines", music play, water & sand play, art, not to mention all the super cool pretend play. They have a big playhouse that you can walk through, a grocery store, bank, library, pizza parlor, mechanic, etc. Wow! Mike and I had a lot of fun too. And they have all sorts of things that kids just love to tinker with like light switches (5 different styles...ha!) and doorbells. Colin & Aidan thoroughly enjoyed those. Aidan even cried when we left. He was so sad to leave! Awwee!!!

Cinderella's carriage


Aidan was absolutely fascinated by this tube contraption. You put a ball or scarf through the tunnel while vacuum-like air is blowing and watch the ball travel through all the tubes and shoot out. Cool!

Kids can climb these "vines" 3 whole stories (while parents climb stairs right next to it). They loved it!

They were like little bugs crawling on leaves in a tree.

Colin liked going up and down!

Wow...a room full of just legos!!! No way! Colin was in heaven!




Gotta love the bead toys!

Cool...big gears!!! Colin loves his little ones at home, so these were a big hit!





Water play in February....Alright!

This is a kid's dream!

Driving the milk truck!

Pretending to be the mechanic...

or car doctor as we call it!

The boys had an absolute blast! And Mike and I thoroughly enjoyed watching them smile, laugh and run from one thing to the next! We might have to look into getting a year long family membership to this place. It was a huge hit!
