Tuesday, we went on a field trip to our local county museum. They have so much that it's basically impossible to see and read everything in just one trip. What I enjoyed most were the several museum workers floating around. Every time I would go off a little and look at something while the head guy was talking to the kids...they would come up and start telling me the history of the item I was looking at. I need to go back to take in all their Civil War exhibit. (my exposure was off...so pardon the bright pictures)
We started doing Valentine's Day crafts like crazy this week!
Cookie cutter stamp art
Sorting animals into popsicle stick barns
