And We Had Fun, Fun, Fun!

Our little family took a trip to Columbia, SC to a great children's museum called Edventure. It was so much fun...for the child and her two hired hands! There was so much to do and see - it was just plain fun. As a mom, it was just a relief to be in a place where my child could touch all the exhibits, run freely, laugh and explore without one moment of mommy tension or panic. If you are a mom, you understand this...everywhere we go from the grocery store to the department store to even kid-friendly places such as Chuck E Cheese or Monkey Joes always carry a bit of danger - things could be broken, she could wander off, etc. This place was completely void of all the dangers and I could relax and just let her have fun...and that I did.

Here are some pictures from the day...I think they explain the adventure better than my words could ever express.

There was a wonderful butterfly garden exhibit...
She got to drive a John Deere...
And gather some eggs...
And milk a cow...
And did a little grocery shopping...
She gassed up the car...
Then took it for a spin...
There was an emergency and she shot down that pole, fast as lightening...
She got in a little practice for her future career as Uncle Abe's assistant...
There was a music studio... so of course we had to make some music...
She and her daddy...finding that drum beat! I have no comment!

It was a magnificent day...a great family adventure. It is hard to have a day completely filled with happy moments with a four --soon to be five --- year old ... but this was one of those days!

Living Happily in the Moment!
