Fun in Minnesota

We all had fun in Minnesota. William enjoyed the Children's Museum (we lost him in the ant hill and I was worried for a little while). William also had fun sledding for the first time at Grandma and Grandpa Mc's house. He had fun making William paths in the snow, getting pulled up the hill and then riding down with Mommy.

I had fun visiting family and my friend Chandra and I took a photography class together. It was good, just a little chaotic for the photo shoots they set up for us. But I learned more about my camera and some new techniques, so that I what I was hoping for.

Adam had fun helping my Dad buy some new TVs that were made this century. And he also made a clandestine trip to the Half Price Bookstore where he bought 5 or 6 books on WWI and WWII. I don't get it, but he enjoys reading non-fiction.

William did well on the long drives, just got antsy on the last 30 minutes coming home. I racked my brain to come up with songs to sing and we hit on Old MacDonald, I went through all the farm animals I could think of and we were still miles from home. So I improvised, Old MacDonald had a Daddy (with a fart, fart, here and a fart, fart there...) William was laughing so hard and so was Daddy. Why is the word fart so funny to boys young and old?

Now for a few pictures...
