Richmond Trip

This weekend the girls and I went to Richmond to spend some time with Mimi and Papa. Of course it didn't hurt that this weekend my parents church had a lot of fun events planned...like a carnival that included a bounce house. Can we say the girls were in heaven?!;) It was a very full, but extremely fun weekend.

On Friday we ventured out to the Children's museum, which is a favorite in our household. Mimi and Papa take the girls there every time they are in town and that is ALL they talk about. When are we going to the Children's museum? When are we going to see Mimi and Papa and go on the merry-go-round? So, Friday was my first experience with the infamous CMoR...I was not disappointed! It was great! Now I can see what the obsession is all about:)

The girls absolute FAVORITE thing to do there. Alley says she always rides the reindeer...doesn't she look happy:)

 Mary Cate was in heaven as well. She loves anything that rocks and she was so proud of herself on her little horse:)

All three girls...Kendall was not excited about sharing her horsey for a photo-op...

Alley putting the muffler back on the car...she said the car needed a little work;)

Apparently, baby's are allowed to nap on the work bench in the car shop...according to MC

Kendall giving the car a little oil...or pepto...whatever;)

In the cave...I was reminded that bats lived in the cave and that I needed to stay quiet so we wouldn't wake them up...because they smell...ooooookay...

riding the dinosaur...all fun and games:)

Look who hatched today...

we've got another!

doing a very intensive archeological dig...(or however you spell it)

the teacher hard at work..

she must have scared off all her pupils...or it's recess time...you decide;)

MC giving us a math lesson...no MC, the beads are not for eating...let's not practice subtraction;)

Alley teaching MC how to deposit money...

the crazy ambulance driver is at it again;)

On Saturday we put on our new Clemson shirts, in spirit of the Clemson/FSU game, and went up to the church for the festivities.

The older two getting in a few grins before adding the wild card;)

All three...this is as good as you get ladies and gentlemen...and that is all she wrote;)

Enjoying the "bounce-o-lean"...so much fun:)

Alley getting a tiger painted on her face....she said she wanted to be like daddy...Andy, do you have a tiger painted on your face?! Hmmmm...

Bam! There you go....interesting...

Papa getting to "go swimming" in the dunk tank. The girls wanted to "throw balls at papa" but got tired of waiting in line and decided the "bounce-o-lean" would be much more fun. Whew;)

hmmmm, you're such a good sport papa:)

We had a great time escaping to Richmond and joining in on the wonderful festivities...looking forward to the next time:) Question is, are yall ready for us again?!;)
