We decided to go to the Museum of Play on Friday anyway… it is only about a mile and a half from our house so Caleb and I walked and Glenn took the girls in the rental car. It was a bit of a chilly walk as it was not supposed to get up to 30 yesterday but it wasn’t bad. It was fun to look in the windows at a slower pace up through South Wedge. There was a new visiting exhibit at the museum “Grossology.” It was pretty gross but the kids particularly liked the life size operation game and the big faucet nose guy. Here are some of our pictures. We'll get more next time we go and add them.
