It was a fun day

Yesterday morning I worked out and cleaned bathrooms. Yesterday afternoon, once Abby came home from her half day of school, we went to Seattle to play at the Children’s Museum.

I tried many times to get my good friend Celeste to come with me, but in the end, it was just the kids and I. It was actually quite nice. I took Lauralund because it is easy knitting which would enable me to adequately watch the children.

It was a weekday, so the museum wasn’t crowded which meant that I could relax and knit. They had an art station set up for the kids to make candles. (Should’ve got a picture of that).

We left shortly before closing so we could haul up to the Science Center before they closed and play at the shadow wall, which is Veronica’s absolute favorite thing.

By the time everything closed, forcing us to head towards home, it was dark.

All in all, it was a great, fun day. If you’d like to see our last stop, click the link. I realize that all of these pictures are in varying degrees of blurriness. I need a new camera.

    Looks like a fun time! I sympathize with you about the pictures. My dd wants a digital camera for Christmas so I’m hoping to buy a nice one that we can share…hope she doesn’t mind 🙂

    The sun is shining here for the first time in two weeks! Really unusual for Oklahoma. Must take some knitting photos today!!!

    Those pictures made me laugh – we had one of my highschool dances at the Children’s Museum, and I have a picture of myself and some friends sitting by some of the different animals and structures there. I can’t remember if it is the whale or not (or if it was there that long ago) but I am actually sitting in the mouth of some creature from the Museum. Ah . . . weird. Happy holidays!

    Looks like a great museum you’ve got there! Lucky you, getting to knit too! Hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving.

    Those are great pics, especially the last one. I didn’t notice the blurriness, but then I am not a tech geek :-).
