Marbles + Parade = Fun Day

A couple of weeks ago Landon, Luke, Peyton, Connor,  Michelle, and Myself headed to Raleigh for Jacob's 3rd birthday party at the Marbles kids Museum.  For those of you that have never experienced the Marbles museum I would definitely recommend going really soon!!  It was sooo awesome not only for the kids but for the Mommy's and Daddy's as well.  I love going places that make me feel like a kid again(check out the hockey photo below and you can tell!) The boys played their little hearts out and of course are ready to go back already.  Landon has a field trip planned in March to go back to Marbles and you guessed it I signed up for that trip :)  After the Party we headed home and stopped in Snow Hill for the annual Christmas Parade.  Trudy B always opens her house to guest for appetizers and the kids love it because they can walk right out her front door and already be there for all of the action.   

   

Landon practicing his surfing skills in one of the many sports areas at Marbles.
Luke had most of his fun play and chasing the green and yellow balls that were laying all over the ground
Here us is one of the only pictures that I got of Jacob.  The older the kids get the harder it is to get a photo because I can't catch them!
Connor landed in one of the boats where he could catch a fish or two for dinner!!

I found this Dr. Seuss quote on the wall and I love it!  The Marbles Museum brings out the real "You" in "YOU"  As you can tell I turned into a big kid on the hockey arena.  I was playing the goalie and I had all kinds of pucks coming at me from all over!  I think I met some future Hockey players out there. 
Peyton testing his skills on the surf board as well.
What is all the noise coming from??  All the kids are holding their ears because the siren from the firetrucks are sooo loud!
Landon, Peyton, Savannah, & Taylor just ohhing and ahhhing over something that is coming up in the parade
Here is the bright and shiny fire truck that has everyone closing their ears! 
Luke and Connor have found some open arms to warm up in.  Luke just loved being in Kayley's arms for most of the day.  I think she loved it too!!
Elizabeth's dad is the new Mayor of Snow Hill.  I had to get a picture of Mr. Dennis riding along in that matchbox car!
Last but not least Mr. and Mrs. Santa to end the parade!  Wow what a great long day!!
