Ohio by way of Indianapolis

We went to see the Durbins in Ohio and stopped by the Indianapolis Children's Museum on the way there.  It was big, but not as hands on as I would have liked.  Link had a blast though and was mad he couldn't come back every day.  But boy was he tired.

It was a great weekend with Bryce's family and I left feeling very fulfilled.


 We are huge Dale Chihuly fans so it was great to see one of his giant sculptures at the museum and even cooler to find an activity where kids could make their own Chihuly inspired sculpture.  Of course plastic instead of glass though.

At the Durbin's the kids had a great time making and decorating a cake and making Pizza with grandma.



 There were a bunch of throw back toys unearthed at the Durbin's that the kids played with.  The periscope above we swear is the inspiration behind Perry.  Link had tons of fun with Uncle Phil.
