Long car ride home

The car ride from Lincoln, NE to home is a long, long, long way, especially for a three year old.
"Are we home yet?  What can I do now?   I'm thirsty.  I'm bored. 
Going home, I can hardly wait.
Carousel stop in North Platte NE.  We did some running too.
Got 10 minutes to learn to drive this dozer.  Need more quarters.
Have the hang of it now.  Just push this button.
Go, go go, half way home.  Colorado here we come.

Breakfast at Mimi's

Breakfast at the pull out counter at Mimi's is always a big treat.  The food always tastes better there.
Cute girls enjoying breakfast at Mimi's.

Unicorn boy

Hey Mom, look at me, I am a unicorn. (or a very happy, silly boy)

Spring

Hope for beautiful things to come.
Bailey is showing us the beautiful flowers, hoping for warmer weather soon.See her bare toes sticking out? 
"Sisters on a swing" - the title of a new painting maybe?

My big wiener boy!

Hey Jill, I just bought us a new car.  What do you think?

Luke

Luke was running through Mimi's kitchen because Molly was chasing him. He ran right into the cutting board being used for dinner preparations.  The lump on the back of his head is as big as his forehead., Thank God for resilient boys and hard heads.

3 monkeys in a tub.

The tub at Mimi's house is big enough for three monkeys to enjoy and get clean in the process.

2nd part of children's museum

 Lunch break at Molly's favorite restaurant, then back to the Children's Museum in Lincoln, NE.
Bubber noodles for Bubba boy.
Deep in conversation with New Grammy.
A girl's gotta rest wherever she can.
Oh oh, this wheel has lost its truck.
Over the road truck drivers.  The horn noise was the best.
If the chair fits, sit in it.
Gopher Molly in a gopher hole.
Friendly fox Bailey not eating little gopher Molly. 
"Now where did that little gopher go?"
Foxey Molly and goofy gopher Bailey.
Being a fox is not the easiest.
New Grammy Gopher
"Oh foxey Molly, please don't eat me!"
Run gopher Luke, run.
Rope climbing up the hill.  Children's Museum Lincoln, NE.
Cutest Statue of Liberty cheerleader ever.  Go Bailey, go.
Now what can you say about a pink unicorn? 
Cheerleader Luke made a cameo appearance.
Sweet, sweet music by a sweet, sweet girl.
Gotta get this fish kiss scene just right.
Nailed it!  A perfectly executed fish kiss. 

Go long for the touchdown.
Can I keep the game ball?  I made the touchdown.
Having fun is exhausting work. But, oh what fun.

1st half of the children's museum

One of the favorites at the Loncoln, NE Children's Museum.  The police motorcycle is quite a hit with its lights and sirens.
Going to a fire, get outta my way.
Policewoman Molly doing her duty.
Oh dear, I forgot where the fire was.
Helping stretch the hose to put out the fire.
Bailey has her badge, her courage and her motorcycle.  She has it all.
Cooperation Pizza is always the best.
"You want some cheese on that pizza?"
Pin silhouettes at the Children's Museum.  We got the point.
Pin faces, or pinheads?
Oh the places we'll go and the things we will do.
Going to do some "touch and go's" just to stay in shape.
Do you think the official ones look much different?
Every boy needs a tree to climb.
Oh Shark! oh, it's just Luke.
A fire breathing monster of some kind.
The good knight princesses and bees.  You never know what you'll find here.
What should I be, where should I go?
