Port Discovery 2.0

Someone recently asked me about some of my favorite things to do with the kids. At the time, I didn't have an answer at the time, but I realized that's a combination of two things. First, I love going to children's museums where they can explore so many different things and seeing their face light up at the new experiences. Second, I can't get enough of seeing them play with my friends' families. I just love seeing them all interact and having fun together.

This weekend, we got to do both of those faves. Mandy, Darren, Caleb, and Molly, who we visited back in Woburn last year, were in Baltimore on vacation. On Saturday, we drove up to meet them for our second visit to Port Discovery. The day didn't disappoint, and we had a great time.

It started by filling up the car with gas, so Fletch could go for a spin.

We then played a little soccer. Piper who didn't want to leave. We may have to get them a soccer ball for their birthday.

Soccer really wears a kid out. 

After that, it was time for more exploring.

And some crafts. I think we have a Petite Picasso or two on our hands.

There was a big Mr. Potato Head exhibit at the museum, and then we happen to run the big man himself. Piper really wanted to hold his hand and give him a kiss. So much so that his "handler" had to tell us to be gentle with Mr. PH.

Time for some fun in the sand.

And some relaxing.

After all that excitement, we left the museum for lunch outside. As you can see, Fletch worked up an appetite and thoroughly enjoyed his PBJ.

All in all, it was a fantastic day. Mandy, we can't wait to see you all again in a few weeks.
