Exploring Spokane

We visited the Mobius Children's Museum in Spokane this week.  It was really a lot of fun.  After Lilly got over her initial shyness, she was all over the place.  We ended up getting a membership and we'll be able to go all the time now!  They are currently in the process of redoing parts of the museum, so in a couple weeks it'll be even better.  It's nice to finally have somewhere to go like this; definitely something the Tri-Cities is in real need of, in my opinion.  :)
 
 
I also took Lilly took McDonald's playland for the first time.  She's still a little young, but the McD's by our house has a little toddler section that's just for the littler kids.  She was just so excited when we were there, her mouth was open the entire time; she was probably just happy to be out of the house, since we've been inside for 3 days with colds.
 


We are teaching Lilly how to say her prayers.  She does really well at sitting and folding her arms and saying "Amen" (most of the time).  Then tonight before bed I said we were going to have prayer, she jumped off the couch and knelt down & folded her arms.  She stayed long enough for me to snap this quick picture on my phone.  She is so sweet!  It's hard not to peek during prayer and just watch her.

 

 
 
 

There is an awesome park a few miles from our apartment, Manito Park.  It's almost 100 acres and has all these different sections, a Rose Garden, Perennial Garden, Lilac Garden, Japanese Garden...etc.  We have been exploring the park these past few weeks and have enjoyed bringing our lunch with us too.  There are a few playgrounds and a huge duck pond too!  There are parks just everywhere here and playgrounds.  It's been really nice!
