Duplos on a Snow Day
Snow day again today! Our stir-crazy kids spent much of the day playing Duplos together. Brian gave Kendall a new set of Duplos he picked out for her last time we were at the Lego store (really, this has to be the last set of Duplos we get!!) Kendall loves the Duplo babies so much, that when he saw there was a third style of baby, with a bottle even, he said we just had to get it.

The kids showed us their piles of Valentines from the kids at school, and Brian shared his conversation hearts with us. They’re a little cheekier than I remember! 😉 We...

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! The kids love the big sundial outside. Something about it, the kids just can’t resist running around and around it. We picked up a variety of slices from Pizza & Pasta to take to Sue’s for our family dinner. It’s now located in Carr Mill, as the Franklin St. location is closed....
