Yesterday we caravaned (is that a word?) nearly two hours (OK, that's not very far, but it seems like an eternity with three small children.) with our friends from WI to Storybook Land in Aberdeen. Karl, Lori, Isaac and Emma visit us every other summer. In the past it's always been too hot to attempt this excursion, but summer seems to have bypassed us this year. As a result, we had a perfect temp for a day of reconnecting with our favorite fairy tale characters: The Three Little Pigs, Humpty Dumpty, The Wizard of Oz, Cinderella, The Three Bears, the Three Little Kittens, Paul Bunyan, and the list goes on.
During our visit, we also stopped by the petting zoo, rode a train, rode a merry-go-round, experienced a simulated tornado inside Dorothy's house, followed the Yellow Brick Road, ate ice cream, used a lot of hand sanitizer, enjoyed a picnic lunch, and took a gajillion pictures.
It was a good thing that the weather cooperated this year. Collin seems to be getting a bit big for Storybook Land. He thought it was a little boring. The other kids had a blast.
