We dropped Todd off at the hotel so he could do the guy thing with the wedding party and my parents and I took the kids to the Childrens Museum. It was great and very much geared towards Dylan's age group. The first thing we did was explore the firetruck and looked at the hoses.
My mom showed Dylan the 9-1-1 section and it was pretty neat.
Then there was the exploration section and Gavin loved this. He was able to crawl all over the place and of course found some pots and pans to make his music =)
We then headed upstairs and went into the area for 4 years old and older for the building station. Dad and Dylan made a pretty cool car. It was fun watching them build together. Dylan was really getting into using the saw on the wood.
They also had an art center, where we watched Dylan paint a picture. We also put our handprints on another and we will treasure this as a keepsake.
Then it was time to go grocery shopping- pretend at least
shooting some hoops
We were all getting hungry, so we decided to go outside. Well.... we saw a playground and had to play on that too.
We headed to lunch and then called Todd and asked if he checked in the room. He did, so we met him at the hotel. The rooms were nice, but they did not have a refrigerator or a microwave in the room, so we requested a refrigerator and they granted the wish. I don't know what we would have done without that since we ALWAYS have to have milk with us. You guys all know Dylan.
Later that night, Todd and I went to the rehearsal and dinner. Mom and dad watched the kiddos. They had fun going swimming and playing with them. We had a great time meeting some new people, reconnecting with people we knew from college and having some alone time. It was an emotional night for the bride and groom.
When we got back to the room this is the cutest thing we saw. Dylan was all cuddled up in the bed with grandma and grandpa. Gavin was sleeping in his pac-n-play... so cute. I stayed in after that and Todd decided to go back out with the guys. He sure felt it the next morning...
