A Day at the Museum

Today is Wednesday...another fun day at the beach. Daniel and Tricia bought Krispy Kreme donuts for breakfast - yum! After breakfast, we headed out for the Children's Museum in Lowcountry. It was incredible! They had several different rooms all set up geared for younger kids. There was a castle where kids could play dress up and act like they were knights or princesses. Another room had a huge table set up with boats, bridges and all of it was in water. In this room, one whole wall was dedicated to kids who wanted to paint with water. There was also a craft room where kids could color on the tables with markers. The next room was a play area for kids under the age of 3. There was also a room with a huge replica of a shrimp boat where kids could steer the boat, go fishing with nets and run around the deck. I think the best of all was a grocery store where kids could actually shop for groceries and go to the register to scan them and pay the cashier. There was something to do for each of our kids and they had so much fun! After the museum, we went to lunch at a pizza joint called the Mellow Mushroom. Everyone then headed back to the house for naps (Levi didn't take one!!!) and some swimming. We ate dinner out tonight at Sticky Fingers - a rib joint. Once again, all the kids are in bed fast asleep and I'm able to blog away! Hope you enjoy the pictures. We had fun today!

Another beautiful day at the beach!

We all ate lunch at the Mellow Mushroom. It's a pizza joint in downtown Charleston. It had a fun atmosphere! Travis is probably laughing in this picture because he said something mean about his loser sister.
Emmy liked her sweet potatoes and apples! I think she had pizza crust, too. Yum Yum Water! Jenny at the Mellow Mushroom.
After the museum, the kids all watched tv with Sophia.
After naps, we had dinner at Sticky Fingers - a rib joint. We've yet to find a place that makes better ribs than Dad's! Eric and I split a rack of Sweet Carolina ribs!!Jenny is getting some sweet kisses from Emmers at dinner!!
