On Saturday, February 9, the Dolly Parton Imagination Library (which sends each of my kids a book a month from birth until their fifth birthday... see if your area has it available here) hosted an event around the book My Little Train, which is one of my girls' favorites that they have received from Dolly. The event was at the Train Depot. A real conductor did a reading of the book. Sabrina got a front-row seat.
The girls made conductor hats and cute little train crafts. The girls took both of these very seriously. It was a really fun morning. And the girls LOVED it.
Tom's mom was generous enough to give birth to Tom around President's Day, so Tom had a 4-day weekend for his birthday. He turned 30 this year. For the big 30 celebration, he and I are taking a trip to Victoria this summer, but for his birthday weekend, we headed to the local Natural History museum with a Groupon. It's a tiny little museum, but the girls had a lot of fun.
This is a cave bear skeleton. Don't want to meet a live one. He had FANGS!
They had a dig pit made of little tiny pieces of rubber with lots of things/bones to dig up. The girls spent a great deal of time in the pits.
They wore the mountains like hats and Sabrina even took to making snow angels.
After the museum, we went to Red Robin and then drove around a bit to take some pictures. And a few moose decided to wish Tom a happy birthday as well.
Tom has transitioned into a 30-year-old easily. No midlife crises or sudden awareness of mortality. Seems like just another birthday. Happy Birthday, Tom!
