Discovery Depot Playdate

Taking a drive in the fire truck.
Milking the cow
Delivering the Mail (Just like Pop-o)
Checking out the water room.
Grace examines an x-ray in the veterinarian office.
Faith puts on her seatbelt in the tractor.
Faith takes a "ride" on the goat in the barn.
Nana checks out Faith's groceries in the store.
Grace puts on the fireman outfit.
Faith serves up some pizza in the restaurant.

We had a fun play date with Nana, Jessica, Carter, & Ellie. Jessica works with Nana at the hospital. We thought it was so funny when Carter said, "What kind of cousin is Grace?" Well, we aren't cousins but we sure enjoy play dates with them! We started our trip by spending the night at Nana's house. The girls woke up at 6 a.m. to crawl on the air mattress with Nana because they were excited to watch a movie.

We had planned to go to the zoo in Peoria, but due to rainy weather had to figure out an alternate plan. We ended up at the Discovery Depot in Galesburg, Illinois. I am really glad we went there because the kids loved it. It is a smaller children's museum. The girls really loved exploring the ambulance, police car, veterinarian office, barn, tractor, restaurant, post office, grocery store, and water area. They also had an outdoor play area we didn't explore due to the rain. I would definitely like to go back again. If you are in the area you should check it out.

Afterwards we went to eat at Hungry Hobos, a sub type shop we had never been to. Before packing up for home we attempted to fabric shop with all three kids for a fun blanket for Titus (more on that later). It was such a fun day!
