Whew!

A wonderful whirlwind week! Last Saturday we finally took Jacob on his birthday outing. We visiting the B & O Museum. It was the first time for all of us and a treat. We had so much fun that we decided to join and so we will be returning several times in the next year and each time we can take four children with us--so maybe we should rent ourselves out. "Rent a NiNi"? There were both indoor and outdoor exhibits. We chose a beautiful sunny day to go so it was fun to be outside. We got a ride on a diesel locomotive, which was fun for me because it reminded me of trips I used to take with my mom to visit my grandmom in Virginia but a little disappointing as well because it never picked up any speed and only lasted about 15-20 minutes. There is an outdoor train garden that appears to be open all the time. They were constructing a Christmas garden inside while we were there. Jacob enjoyed this crane which can ride on rails. He named it a "crane train" and thought that was quite hilarious.

Afterwards, we had a late lunch at Fuddrucker's in White Marsh. The whole day was fun and we all enjoyed having that special time with just one grandchild.

Keep watching this spot for more about our "Whew" week!
