My vacation time is dwindling down... darn it!






Thursday we went to the Children's Museum in Indy. We left home around 7:30 and stopped and had breakfast with the old people...Richards. I think all the kids enjoyed the museum. The big kids had fun but they are getting to the age where its borderline for them. BUT Miss Piper had an great time! She was like a crazy animal in there. There was the room for toddlers its called PlayScape. MAN! Was that place out of control!!!! Toddlers running everywhere - playing with everything - water, sand playhouse, slides. The big kids wanted to go see something on the Bat Mobile that was used in the Dark Knight movie so I stayed in there with Piper.... I was ready to get the hell out of there!






There was a Curious George area that Piper just loved too. There was a cool rocket slide in there. That was her first taste of running around like a wild indian. Riley got to sit an a real Indy car. Piper and I rode the carousel. All in all - it was a fun day. We got there around 10ish and left alittle after 1. We stopped for a late lunch on the way home at Cheeseburger in Paradise. Food was ok. Steve and I have ate there before and weren't overally impressed but decided to give it a try again. Good atmosphere if anything! And good music.....






Yesterday we didn't do too much. Just kinda hung around the house. When Piper went down for her nap the big kids went swimming (well fighting in the pool) and I read my book and laid by the pool. I haven't done that in forever I tell you! I was able to finish one good book and start another. We took the big kids to meet their mom and we went to pick up movies and eat some supper. We tried Moe's Southwest Grill.... YUMMY! We will for sure be going back there! I loved it. I had basically their tacos and Steve had their burritos but they are made with chicken or steak and they just tasted good! They did have a few kinds of beers there and it looked like they might have margaritas. The chips and salsa were both good and the cheese dip was good too. We are for sure adding that to the list of places to eat!






After supper we did a bit of running and they headed for home. After we put Piper to bed we watched Margot at the wedding.. Well, if you ever want to watch a movie that the whole time you keep waiting for things to start acting normal and you kinda get the movie and at the end you say WTF???? This is the movie you need to watch. There were several funny parts but all in all it was just weird!






Today we did the normal. Except we went to the Barr Street farmers market. It was packed! There was all kinds of stuff. Fresh produce, fruit, honey, maple syrup, breads and jewelry and come clothes. Even live music! It was pretty cool. I think we will go back again soon.






My wonderful husband went to the grocery while Piper took her nap. I hate the grocery store and seem to have avoided going now for the last 2 times! SWEET!






We are heading to Huntington for the evening. The grandparents are watching Norah. She is walking now so I want to get her and Piper to play together. They haven't played together since Norah started walking. Better take the camera!
