Friday, my hubby, took the day off, so we could have a family day. (Hurray!)
We contemplated taking the kids to a matinee movie, but there wasn't anything we wanted to watch or that I thought was appropriate for our kids. (I'm pretty strict about what I let them watch regarding rating and quality.)
Thanks to Grandpa, we knew that IHOP was having their "scary face pancakes" all day. So, the kids got their free breakfasts. Bob and I each ordered a breakfast with some extra sausage or ham and shared with the kids.
Bug's requirement of eating at a restaurant. Check.
Next, we headed to the Building for Kids, which is Appleton's Children's Museum! Thanks to my sister-in-law, Bonnie, who suggested it and asked us to check it out for her.
We ALL had a blast! We were there for just over two hours (could have spent more time, but I couldn't figure out how to get into the parking garage and the parking meter only gave us 2 hours...I found the entrance to the parking garage after we left....) The kids played solid for those two hours. I think Bob and I had just as much fun watching them as they did playing. I took a TON of pictures.

| Isn't this COOOOOL!? Bug is sliding down the aorta! |

| Even a fire engine! |

What a great day. And as a total side effect, I think we all recharged our batteries.
