Boys Day Out 1 Mar 2016

Daddy Day with the Nicholas & Andrew while Mommy was on travel.  We went to the Fredericksburg, VA Children's Museum.  Not as good and/or big as the Richmond one.  The boys cranking up waffle balls and watch them come down.

Andrew gets smacked with the scarves as they come out the shoot and Nicholas continues to feed the tube of scarves.

What Daddy wants to be when he grows up.  A computer that takes a pic of your face and you can dress it up in whatever profession you want to be.  The boys did not have the patients to stand there to get their pic taken.

Nicholas doing the hula hoop;  he's pretty good at it too.
