Sunday, Baseball and the Como Zoo

We headed up to St. Paul today for a picnic with the Daugherty's at the Como Zoo.  It was the kids first time to meet their new niece Indigo.   After playing at the playground and having lunch, we headed over to the baseball diamond for a few swings of the bat.  The kids won 36-0 (last I heard!) against John and I.  I didn't help we were the only 2 on the field and we were never up to bat!   Lydia and Indigo watched the action from left field.  Gammie joined us later at the zoo.  The highlight of the zoo ended up being the gold fish!  Oh and the carousel!  (very cool, built in 1914).

Cub Scout Rocket Shoot

Yesterday was the annual Cub Scout Rocket Shoot.   It was a pretty windy day so we spent most of the time hunting and searching for rockets.   Luckily we only lost one.   The boys (and Soph!) all had a lot of fun.

Transportation Fair

We hit the Rochester Transportation Fair today.  A bit chilly, but the kids seemed to enjoy themselves.  There was lots of free candy, so there was definitely a thumbs up from all!
