The Winner Is...

This photo is from a year ago. Just so you can all gage for yourself how much they boys have changed and grown. It's not that I'm running behind in taking pictures or anything like that.

We go to our town library every week. The children's section has a train set, and the boys play with that while I pick out books for them. In fact, instead of saying "lets go to the library" I might as well say "lets go play with the trains!" It would have the same effect.

The library is always doing great things and having events. This summer the entire theme is "Road Trip" and the teens organized an outdoor "Road Trip" where they had a table set up for each state, and an activity for each state. They had Syrup tasting for NH, making the "Rocky Mountains" in play dough for Colorado, making your own Mardis Gras mask for LA, and my personal favorite, making marshmallow snowmen for Alaska. They also had a small wading pool filled with bubble solution, and giant bubble wands so kids could make huge bubbles. Kids gave away free ice cream, popcorn, and ice pops. There were giant beach balls, and a sprinkler... the kids had lots of fun. And a photographer took a picture of Nicholas, and he was in the paper.

A week later the Library had a "Vehicle Day" and we went to look at a police car, a tow truck (which the boys climbed into!) a Backhoe, and stuff like that. It was less exciting than the other event, but we did enter a raffle to win a Big Wheel bike... and guess what? WE WON! Yesterday we went to the library to claim our prize and walked away with a nice red Big Wheel, and both boys were over the moon. Nicholas can actually make it go, but Nate just sits in it and scoots with his feet. It's very cute.

And one day, when I get a picture, I'll post it!
