After the zoo went over as such a big hit on Saturday, and being faced with yucky weather-- pretty much the coldest Memorial day weekend that I can remember-- it seemed only natural to head down to the Children's Museum on Sunday to get out of the house while Hunt tried to get some school work done. It's nice being a member so that we can pop down there for just a little visit, burn some toddler energy, and then be home for lunch and nap time.

| Tea party with the bears. I tried not to completely freak out as she walked right over to the tea cup and drank from it, when who knows how many other children with goodness knows what germs have also sucked on it. Instead I just mentally focused on how cute it was that she knew just what to do at a bear tea party! |

| Neon Squeaky... or Rave Squeaky according to Carson. |

| Cupcake and ice cream parlor... again, there was public toys straight to the mouth. Ick. |
 |
| In honor of the Indy 500. |
 |
| Obsessed with all things water. |
That afternoon was our barbecue at Mindy and Jim's house. The weather didn't cooperate well, but it was a very fun small gathering, and Harper and I got a few cute pics together which is always a bonus!

| Toddlers entertaining themselves. |

| Reading her fav "Shoe La La" while rocking some patriotic beads. Toddler stall tactics in full effect to avoid going upstairs and begin the bedtime process. Apparently someone has gotten the message that the cuter she is in the evening, the easier it is to push that bed time right on back... |
And finally, the conclusion of a fun three days was capped off with celebrating America in true Mayo fashion-- letting our inner fat rednecks out to eat some excessive amounts of meat and Hunt enjoyed himself a Bud diesel, while Harper shoved a good bit of cornbread into her mouth interspersed with periodically stretching and talking/singing to herself.
