rainy day fun


Yesterday was one of those rainy gray days.  We were all going stir crazy in the house.  The cure?  A visit to the planetarium with some friends.  The kids loved the wavy mirrors and running around the wide open spaces.

We picked Andy up from work on the way home.  Ruby fell asleep in the car... and slept for 45 minutes on the couch while I made cornbread to go with our crock-pot chili (I love coming home to a ready dinner).  Andy took Alli with him to get his hair cut.  The house was so quiet!  I finished up dinner, set the table, did the dishes... without interruptions!  Ruby woke up when Andy and Alli came home and we all had dinner together.  What a treat!

The cost of Ruby's nap... she was bright-eyed and bushy-tailed until 11:30pm.

I love seeing your belly in the mirror. Funny how the reflection makes it look like you've got a baby in your belly or something! Ha!

Is this the planetarium that would have had a $3 million projector?

...it would have been pretty sweet
