We were not allowed to take pictures in this museum but sneaked just one. The Mini-Time Machine: A Museum of Miniatures is fabulous! I couldn't believe how nice it was. Isabel is convinced that it is a magical place. Joey (a 34 year old man) even loved it! Check out their website.
Just to explain this picture. They are on top of a see through floor above a Christmas village.
My parents came and visited for Thanksgiving. During their stay they took Luke, Isabel and Sylvia out individually to do whatever they chose. Sylvia decided breakfast at McDonald's would be fun.
Then a trip to "the store with the colorful letters!"
Grandma trying to find a toy that would be hands on for my hands on Sylvia. They eventually got her a tool set and she loves it.
Sylvia in her "sheep costume" that G&G got for her from Costco.
I am a little afraid that Isabel just loves the mall.
escalator rides.
Going to stores that I am sure grandpa LOVED going to.
Luke chose the biosphere.
Sadly, right after they bought the tickets and went into the first room, Luke slumped down sick and they had to take him home. Luckily, just one good puking and he was fine. He then chose to play Monopoly with G&G and they had a good time. I wish I would have gotten a picture of them playing.
Here we are going for a little hike on Thanksgiving morning. The weather was/is fabulous! Having seasons is so overrated.
Sylvia and grandpa
I remember being up there when I was her age!
Yes, Hazel is still around.
This magnetic wall would be a simple thing to put up at home (on a smaller scale of course.) I am seriously thinking about it. You could then just put magnets on pvc pipe and let the kids build and drop marbles down.
Isabel loved the animal hospital section.
She has decided that she wants to be a veterinarian.
Hazel LOVED these ugly babies.
One hand at her mouth of course and the other patting and poking at the baby while looking around, worried and suspicious that someone was going to take her baby.
Hazel would scream whenever this cute little girl would get anywhere near "Hazel's" baby.
