LegoPalooza at the Planetarium, Puppet Show at Grandma’s
Today we were off to Chapel Hill for LegoPalooza at the Morehead Planetarium. It was a long wait to get up the stairs to the third floor, but, so fun to see all the different Lego creations!

This evening, Kendall got her pony castle that she’d been earning stickers for, and she was just over-the-moon excited! I helped her put...

This morning, we checked out of our hotel and had a nice brunch before heading to Sue’s. The kids were excited to see us and tell us all about their sleepover.
