Mamas and Boys

Today Charis, Ellis, Owain and I went for a little mid-winter, mid-week outing to Eau Claire. It was a silly, fun, improvised date that took us to the Children's Museum and the boys' new favorite place in the world - an old time train store, run by an old timey gentleman who was just the friendliest train engineer we could ever care to meet. Some of our favorite moments...

Be Mona! at the kids' museum
They really just could NOT believe their good fortune...trains everywhere!
I couldn't resist sharing Ellis's "carousel" that we built out of bristle blocks this morning. Have you ever seen tiny plastic animals having this much fun?!

How in the world did you get Owain to mimic the mona lisa? That is so nutty!
Looks like a really fun day for the four of you! And the carousel is pretty amazing too :)
Kisses from oregon!
