Petting Zoo at Creation Museum...

Owen is so good with animals. This is one quality about Owen that I really like. He is very gentle, and kind with animals, and people in general. We gave him lots of opportunities to feed the animals. I think he giggled most with the camel, though....who seemed to be smiling at all the people. It was fun to see.

Children's Museum in Indianapolis, IN

Well, the Children's Museum in Indianapolis, IN is AMAZING! More like an amusement park size! Owen enjoyed the whole day, and even cried when we had to leave. (He was sooooh tired.) And who wouldn't be? Look at all the cool things he did????

Pool Party!

We had such a BLAST at our pool party, Friday!! Owen invited 6 friends, from my Mommy Lighthouse chat group, here locally, and Grandma Carol too, and we all had some lunch and swam. Daddy helped fill the pools for me, set up chairs, and anchored the swing set, so the outside was good to go. I bleached the pool toys, cleaned the house, got groceries (Hotdogs, pop, etc.) and set up the table inside for food. We were a little worried that it might be too cold, as it was only 65 degrees by 10:15am. But, when everyone arrived at 11am, it was already 74 degrees. I grilled hotdogs on my inside grill. Our food spread (all the moms contributed) also included Advacado Black Bean Salsa and Tostitos, Mixed fruit, Brownies, Chocolate Chip cookies, Juice Boxes, and a special cake for my birthday, that my friend Lesley made for me. YUMMO! After swimming for a while, we took some pictures, and had popsicles! If I can get permission, I'll add a few of the other kids later.....Hope you enjoy!

CREATION MUSEUM

Here are our wonderful friends, the Zieglers! They hosted our entire vacation, and let us just go here and there, with or without them. It really allowed us to completely enjoy our time there. :)

Very interesting place. Owen like the outside the most, with the gardens and the petting zoo, and the food, since he really need to run around after being in the car for the trip. (We played Travel Bingo on the way.) Charlie and I enjoyed going through the museum, part by part.

TRAIN DEPOT in Upland, IN

Our first stop in Upland was to the train depot. It was closed, but when we were walking around, the lady in charge came up and opened it just for us. It was so kind of her. Owen loved it!

Home Depot #3

Owen made a Flag Holder today! Isn't it lovely? I didn't go this time, so Daddy was helping AND taking pictures at the same time. Anyone need some patio furniture?? LOL.

Naked Boy

My little stinker decided to come downstairs completely NAKED! Guess he wanted his bath RIGHT NOW! LOL
