fun family day...

drew had monday off so i decided to take a vacation day.
we made plans to head to the building for kids.

max found this baby nursery...he quickly picked up this baby and said, "momma, have!"

next he found a giant barn filled with animals.
it was much bigger than the barn he has at home and he carried this bull around for awhile.

he thinks he is such big stuff.
he just HAD TO climb these stairs.

next dada and max spent some time driving the firetruck.
are they a couple of handsome firemen, or what!

dada was trying lure max into this rope tree house but he was having none of it.

next it was off to the water tables.

he would put these rubber duckies down the slide and quack at them as they passed by!

he was really enjoying this part of the museum.

after this particular table and this specific move...the back of his shirt and the seat of his pants were soaked! :)

i think the construction exhibit was dada's favorite.

he operated this machine a few times...this was the only time max joined him!

dada and max in the tree house!

what a good looking pilot!

momma and max in the control tower.

when max lost interest, we headed over to copper rock for coffee for us and a treat for max.

i love that a fruit and yogurt parfait is a "treat" to my kid! :)

after a nap for max, some house projects for drew, and some relaxing and book reading for me, we ventured outside.

max enjoyed his first of many picnics!

then, dada broke out the bubble wand from one of max's easter baskets.
it was a riot to watch this!

and this might be my new favorite picture of max for the time being.

i am so in love with my family.

i am so thankful for days like this to just be with each other and have fun.
