LONG overdue...sorry Jodi :)

A friend from college came to visit a few weeks ago. She drove 6 hours from mid-Ohio with an 18-month-old without getting lost!! She's braver than me, that's for sure. We took a day and went up to the Strong Museum of Play in Rochester. We met another friend and her daughter there. The kids LOVED it.

Mother Goose gave me a break and took care of the girls for a moment. She'd make a good nanny if she was real.

Catie and Judah playing checkers in the Sesame Street area. Not sure who won, but I'm sure it was a riveting match.

Lydia could've spent the entire day by the aquariums. I think I need to find a real aquarium to visit with the girls sometime. Anyone know of a good one?

Naomi's mom, Jenelle, and I grew up going to the same camp, then ended up at the same college. We hope our girls will get to grow up together at Chambers Camp as well.

I don't think that taking his flower is the BEST way to get across the troll's bridge....

Catie shared a special moment with the Berenstein Bears.

And, finally, a ride on the carousel at the end of a fun (long, exhausting) day.
