Thanksgiving and Dan's Birthday

We visited the Maas family for Thanksgiving and had a wonderful vacation.  On Thanksgiving, Uncle Mike and Emma made an organic chocolate cake for Daddy with cream cheese frosting.  Grandpa and Grandma took the girls to a unique Lego store where they could make their own lego sets from a variety of characters.  Each girl was able to pick out two of their favorite characters and then they got to share a princess Lego set.  We attempted to take the girls ice skating however the weather was not cooperative for the unveiling of the ice.  We did get to listen to some nice holiday music with bells and a choir instead.  On Saturday we went to the Wisconsin Children's Museum and had a blast.  Mommy's favorites were the hamster wheel and the water tornado.  Emma said that she really liked shadow room and the diner where she made pretend pie.  Ani seemed to like the water tornado, paint area and spaceship.  Daddy even got Mommy and Emma to have a dance party in the elevator when we rode between floors.  So many cool things to explore!  We will have to go back there when the weather is warm to try out the outdoor play areas.  Both girls slept the majority of the way home and we were all exhausted after two hours of unpacking and cleaning.  Time to get back on schedule!

Happy Birthday Daddy!  Thanks for reading Strawberry Shortcake and the Fake Cake Surprise for the 100th time over the weekend.
