Children's Museum

It was a rainy day - a good day to go to the children's museum.

Al taught Hannah how to play the market. 

They both "made" money!

These girls are really good at being radio announcers.

Their daddy did that at college for the college radio station.

He even had a special code he'd use that only he and Jill knew that told Jill he loved her.

Can you lift your own weight? 

How about Papa's weight? 

They love being puppeteers!

I remember these old phones!  We used them when we would travel!  Now, I can't even imagine life without a cell phone!

It has not been that long ago!  I remember when our kids were in college they used them!  We had a card that they would punch in the numbers and it would charge us.

 May I take your order, sir?

How much would Papa tip? 

I wonder what the Lord has in store for these girls some day?

(when Hannah was little, she said "what God has in storage")  

 

Kids can't resist puddles!

Out to eat!

Culvers for the older ones.  Have you ever eaten at Culvers?  Oh my, so good!

 Claire wanted McDonalds so she could play in the play area.  Papa and her ate there.  Culvers and McD are within walking distance so when we were finished, we walked over.  Of course, the olders girls enjoyed the play area too!

A little outing

The girls had 1/2 day of school on Friday.  When they got home, we had some lunch and then decided to go pick out some pumpkins.

We got a big one for the front porch that they will carve out later.

And several small ones that they wanted in their own rooms.

We stopped at Menards because Al had a project he wanted to work on.

 The girls were having so much fun!

Al's home improvement project.

We drove out to the Little Farmer and stopped at a lookout on the way.

 Lake Winnebago

 At Little Farmer, we ordered specialty caramelized apples.  Gramsi (the other grandma) had made Claire some non-dairy caramel topping and we brought that along. 

 It began raining so we went into the house on the grounds that has been converted to a shop/coffee house to eat.

 "Can we buy this for Daddy?  He would YUV it!"

Just our luck!  It quit raining! 

And half the crowds had left!

 

 

  

 Will you feed me? 

 

 

 What a fun fall day!
