The day off and a trip full of fun!







The girls had the day off on MLK day and so did Mommy from her home bookkeeping job so we decided to spend it having some fun! Call me crazy (as so many have done before!) but Mommy decided that since The Childrens' Museum was free on that day, we would go. Now the really crazy part of this is that we still have a yearly membership there but I wanted to take advantage of the free day since ours had just recently expired and I hadn't renewed it yet. Hey, why not take advantage of something free while you can, right?? The only problem was the insane and absolutely extreme crowds...HOLY COW! Unbelieveable how many people will take their kiddos to a museum when you mention the word FREE! But we still made the best of it and had a ball. And, since Mommy was on her own w/ all of the girls since Daddy had to work, I was a bit nervous as to how everyone would do w/ it being so crowded but after a quick "pep talk" in the van before going in, they all did fabulous and stuck close together just like we talked about before hand....way to go Team Massey! They really enjoyed the new Barbie exhibit (even Katelyn got into that one!) and we also liked the Egypt exhibit that we have seen before but still enjoy time after time! This day we were able to enjoy that exhibit with a special musical concert and all three girls loved that part. After our museum excursion, I got really goofy and decided one bargain was not enough for our fun day so we called Daddy and talked him into meeting us for lunch at The Incredible Pizza Place since they were running a 1/2 price special for lunch. He was able to do that so we all enjoyed a delicious pizza buffet before he had to head back to work. Which left Mama w/ the 3 girlies again for the really fun part of this excursion....playing all of the games at this fun place! Once again, our girls did a great job and showed me why I wanted to take them for this fun day in the first place, they really behaved well! We had a great day off and talked that night after bedtime prayers about how fun it was to spend time together just being silly and enjoying ourselves! Ahhhh, life is so sweet!
