Idaho Trip - Day 2

Saturday was cold but we wanted to get out and run some errands. We stopped by Tutu's office so the boys could see where she worked and pick a surprise from her treasure chest. We also showed Lincoln his old school and where we used to live...he didn't remember either place. We also met up with Uncle Don to see how his museum of clean that he's building is coming along. The boys got to test the children's area out. They had fun but came sways with a few bumps and bruises. Now Don knows what needs to be kid proofed! We ended our time in town at Ruby Tuesday's for dinner with Tutu. Back to the house for some playtime and bed.

 Aunt Natalee was a huge help with the boys. 

Lincoln had a lot of fun pumping out the water.  He thought it was pretty cool.
 Lincoln and Daddy.  I love the huge sign. 
 Lincoln, Ricky and the knight made from cleaning tools. 
 Lincoln's favorite dinosaur.  
 This huge boat is supposed to be modeled after Noah's Ark.  The boys loved running through it up to the top level and finding all of the hiding spots. 


We watched the museum come together over the last three years.  It's come a long way but there's still a lot to do before it can open to the public.  I hope it turns out to be everything Uncle Don has envisioned. He is pretty passionate about the project and I think it could be a good thing for Pocatello when it's finished.
