A Day at the Museum

On Monday, Gigi was off of work, so she planned to take all 3 of her favorite grandkids to the zoo. With the threat of rain all day, we decided to try out the museum instead. Meredith was a little disappointed at first, but I told her about all the fun things that we would get to play with and she was sold. There are a limited amount of kids exhibits set up while they redo the museum, but Landon and Meredith did not seem to mind at all! Their favorites were the little house where they could ring the doorbell, play on the phone and flip the lightswitch - plus there were blocks on shelves that you could stack to build walls and the grocery store. Meredith spent lots of time piling her grocery cart full - usually of only items from the same food group (she filled it with only bread then went back for only dairy and then only meat - it was too funny!)

Jillian had a great time helping Meredith pick out what should go in her basket!

After we finished up at with the Children's section, we checked out the rest of the Cowgirl Museum.

Then we tried to add Jillian - not sure she was quite ready for her first horse ride - and Landon thought it made it a little too cramped!
Then everyone tried the horse on their own - much better!

Landon loved the ride and kept saying "Yee Haw!"
