Mighty Big Boots

Lincoln ran inside this evening to put on shoes so he could do his chores. But instead he somehow managed to tromp out in daddy's boots. He was ever so proud of himself.

To the Museum (Again)

I know, I agree with you. This is getting old. The boys would not agree with you though. I'm starting to hear things at prayer time along the lines of, "Thank you that we got to go to the museum." So we skipped naps today to spend a little more time learning and exploring. Everyone enjoyed testing out the springboard buggy benches. The boys discovered all manner of wildlife painted into one of the murals. We found Brad Pitt's doppelganger in lockup. There was some strolling through Pioneer Village (Zeke and Lincoln loved the boys play cabin). And we spent a good amount of time at the play structure.

Mini Me

Zeke is doing his best Robb impression. I'm not sure what Rusty is doing, but it looks a lot like a smize.

To the Museum

The boys were begging to see more of the museum, so we headed over after naps and saw as much as we could in the hour we had before closing time. I love the Ransom Clark Cabin. The boys loved the weapons in the WWII exhibit.

Sir White Beard

This happened on Robb's watch. But to be clear, I have a rather bad habit of not properly closing things. And I just might have been painting yesterday. Oops. Sorry, Robb.

We (Finally) Visit Fort Walla Walla Museum

I was born in Walla Walla. And I've lived here off and on for years. And yet, today marked my very first visit to this museum. (Mom, correct me if this is wrong.) I admit, I've always wanted to go poking around Pioneer Village, but paying an entrance fee seemed too much. Lucky for us, it was half off for family memberships today. So we'll be exposing these boys to all the vintage agricultural equipment and local history they can handle.

Lincoln's First Movie

Lincoln has seen plenty of movies. But this was his first time watching one on the big screen. The best part? He wanted to sit in my lap the whole time! I loved every silly minute of Shaun the Sheep.

Project Time

Robb got the chance to work on the play structure a bit today. And the boys worked on their tree fort skills. Can you call it a tree fort if it is in a lilac?

Extreme Close-ups

I never tire of finding these surprises on my camera. Sorry guys.

Story Time

Grandpa Robert is awesome at story time, because he does all the voices.
