It's been a very fun past few weeks. First, Lily and all the second graders put on A Night at the Wax Museum. Each student researched a historical figure, wrote a report, dressed up as their person and became a "wax statue." Then as families strolled through the musuem we had a remote control (a paper button) and when we said "beep" they statues came alive and gave their reports. It was the cutest thing e-v-e-r. Lily, my shy and introverted child, did awesome. She was Mia Hamm and she spoke loudly and confidently and totally stayed in character. In fact, Andrew was confused as to why she wasn't responding to him. Here are some pictures of the historical figures. Isn't Einstein a hoot?
Then we headed down for a weekend getaway in Cincinati. We traveled with our dear friends and it was a blast. Between Uncle Yip's authentic Chinese food, visiting Jungle gyms, the Cincinati Children's museum, swimming at the hotel and an Ikea shopping trip for just the moms (dads and kids were in the pool), it was an awesome mini vacation. Here are some pics of the kids.
