Third Time's a Charm

 As everyone is well aware, this winter has been just horrendous.  With bad roads keeping us home on two prior weekends, we finally managed to get up to Bridgeport to visit my parents and belatedly celebrate Julia's 3rd birthday.  The only problem was my mom had to work on Saturday.  Never fear, Grandpa and I kept the kids occupied by taking them over to the Mid-Michigan Children's Museum in Saginaw.  The last time we were there it was St. Patrick's Day 2012.  Especially with Mya, I was reminded how little they were at that time and it made me happy and sad all at the same time.  We hope you enjoy these pictures from our trip!

The kids spent most of their time at the water table, Mason building with the pipes and Mya with the water wheels and pink fish.  Don't you love her expression in the bottom center picture?  She is not happy with the kid next to her whipping around a fishing pole.  Of course Mason and Grandpa found the train table as well.  But probably the highlight of the afternoon was watching Mya organize the bugs in the bee house.  She took out every little bug and bee and lined them up.  Yep, that's my girl!
