a rocky start to the weekend
We kicked the weekend off with a visit to our local library to enjoy a presentation on space rocks and fossils. The boys (or at least Max) may have been a bit too young to fully appreciate them, but they certainly enjoyed touching and examining all the specimens. In Max's case, he enjoyed it a little too much -- I had to stop him from banging one of the more fragile specimens on the table. Our cousin Cole is doing a school project on fossils, so we were able to meet him, Janis, and Cassidy at the library and enjoy some family fun, while learning some things along the way. After the presentation, the boys visited the library's playroom, where Max did puzzles and Liam played with the dolls in the big dollhouse. And by "played with the dolls," I mean, "set the dolls up in various scenarios, and then yelled 'Fire!' and attempted to get the whole family out of the house before they were consumed." What can we say? The kid's got a passion for fire safety. And if he thought that was fun, he'll be *really* thrilled when he gets the "Fireman Sam" poster that Mike ordered for him a couple of weeks ago (it's coming from the UK, apparently by slow boat).
