Another Trip to the Library

We had this wonderful plan to go to a new library every week throughout the winter.  But like so many of my brilliant plans, it didn't happen.  We went to a few and then it just got forgotten I guess.  

Well the other day we took a spur-of-the-moment trip to a nearby library.  Just like each of the other libraries we visited, this one is the kids' new favorite.   There are several reasons for this...

1.  It has a drinking fountain.  (They were "dying" of thirst when we got there).
 2. It has an awesome table and chairs in the shape of pencils and notebook paper. 


 3.  It has fun magnet puzzle/games. 


4. The kids found lots of fun books (Star Wars and Rainbow Fairies).


 5. And last, but not least, it has a park right next to it!!!


 A new park that we'd never been to before.


 With fun, new stuff we've never played on before!










There's this giant, carved Indian head statue in the park too.  It's dark wooden in color and nestled in amongst trees.   It's also right by a road, which happens to be the road to Target.  So every time we drive that way the kids always look for the Indian head. 



Now, after 2 years of living here and driving past him, the children have finally met the Indian head.  

Good, we can check that off our list now.  When we first moved here it seemed we'd be here for so long.  Now we're down to 1 year left, give or take a few months.  So I am starting to feel like we do need to make a list of things we want to do and see in the area.

James is taking a final as we speak.  He has one per day this week.  Then he'll have a whole week off.  He will be a 3rd year!  Then he'll have his white coat ceremony and the very next day be in clinic with real patients and everything!  We're all so proud and excited for him.  

Love you, Babe!  Good luck this week!
