We got into town at 2 a.m. on Saturday Morning. The last hour was painful I could hardly keep my eyes open. The kids were asleep and Bruce was trying to sleep (Ha Ha). With Jacks carseat still being facing backwards it makes for a upright seat position not condusive to sleeping so he was leaning forward on the dash. So of course everyone woke up for a few hours once we got in A REALLY LATE NIGHT!!!
Saturday was a low key day. We made a lunch trip to Chick-fil-a since we dont have any near us in Michigan. Then it was on to IKEA all the while Avery was asking when we were going to pick up her cousin Maria. After a few hours at IKEA we headed to the Mall so Bruce could get his Pirates Jersey. By the time we made it back to my parents house Maria was there. We had a nice dinner thanks to my mom and we all settled in for the night.
Sunday we went to the National Aviary. It was great because we got in free since we are members of Frederic Meijer Gardens. The girls & Jack enjoyed it! Nothing to remarkable there just some cool birds. We paid $6 so the girls could feed the Lories but they chickened out and uncle Jeff ended up holding both the cups of nectar.
After the Aviary we went to Gus & Yaiyas which is a staple in Pittsburgh iceballs they have been in the same spot for years and years. The slogan on the side of the cart is "Since your dad was a lad" so reliving my childhood the kids had to try it! Rainbow for both the girls. They didnt make to much of a mess which didnt matter because later on they washed the dresses they were wearing at the childrens museum.
At 1 oclock Bruce and my dad took off for a pirates game. Jeff, My mom, Avery, Maria, Jackson and myself met up my Aunt Diane, cousin Jessie and her son Caden and went to the childrens museum. For some reason I had the bright idea of starting out in the water works! Well the kids had a blast trying to build pipes that would carry water & filling up boots with water(not part of the toys) they got SOAKED!!! head to toe!!! They had rain coats on but they still managed to get wet! They were filling up the arms of the rain coats lifting their arms and presto wet little bodies!! Oh well they dried pretty quick. There were lots of fun things to do there even for Jack. Another day of fun!!
