rain out

unfortunately (or fortunately) the guys decided that the weather was too iffy for golf this morning so they joined us for church, then brunch (bagels and coffee) before heading to the mckinley museum for some indoor exploration.  with the holiday and the weather, this looked like our only day to really go do anything during their visit. i think that the museum worked out great and the kids enjoyed sharing one of their favorite places with the group.
you can tell by papa's face that the ride spun just a little too fast...
 maddux had fun discussing the trains with nana.  in the second picture he is asking "where did it go?"
the men took the kids up to the top of the memorial while the ladies watched and took pictures of their climb.  on the way up, madelyn did push-ups every few stairs ("to exercise") and she and mason slid on the sides of the stairs like a slide on the way down (it is fairly smooth marble and they don't go very fast - they have to scoot with their hands a little to move).
i thought that it was a very enjoyable way to spend the afternoon and think that everyone else enjoyed themselves too.  love.
