the Magic House

If you live in St. Louis (okay, even if you don't) and have little ones, you HAVE to go to the Magic House. (This is one of the many reasons for all of my out-of-town friends to come visit!!!) It is a huge mansion with tons of fun things from a grocery store to a pond to go fishing! We started in the water room, which was thoroughly equipped with smocks (brilliant!) and then fixed a car, went fishing in the pond, made pizza in a restaurant, went climbing, and played in the sand. A kid would never want to leave that place!

I had to laugh at myself because I was kind of excited for a brief moment about the mock grocery store. And as Ty's friend, Laine, ran to fill her basket with fake groceries, I thought Ty might think it was fun too. However, he quickly bypassed the grocery store and ran right over to the car that was up on a jack and began "working" on it. (I forgot for a moment that he was a boy!) :)
