My mom and dad came out to visit in June. After Alexa's celebration and the kids were out of school, Tim needed us to go down to Charlotte for him. We decided to make a day of it. First we stopped at a park to eat our lunch. The girls were playing on the bars and I realized they didn't know how to do cherry drops and all the classic, (and scary to me now) tricks on the bars. So, we had a few lessons. (They wanted me to demonstrate but I'm to old and have had too many kids.)
They literally look like monkey's here.
Here is my little cautious Livie. Always a little timid at first but ALWAYS willing to give it a try.

After the park we took Charlotte's one little train into downtown. It only has one line (unlike Boston's 3 and 4 lines.) The girls had so much fun.
Who knows what this girl is thinking.
Again, Livie a little timid even when the train started. It went pretty fast.
The "happy" couple.

When we got to the end of the line we decided we would walk around a bit and see what's in downtown Charlotte. Right at the stop and a few steps away was the children's public library called "Imaginon". From the outside I thought it was some sort of science museum or something. When I realized it was the library we went ahead and went in. It was great. The whole library is just for kids. It's HUGE. It's like it's own Children's museum with fun little activities. The girls LOVED it and I loved it because it was FREE!!!McKenna and I outside the library
Cutest sisters EVER!
In the library they had a little playhouse with kitchen stuff and a fake garden with rows that they could stick flowers in to make them look like they were growing.
Here they are in there Royal costumes (they forgot to change the background to match.)

They also had a stage with different costumes to dress up in equiped with a camera and a tv that they could watch themselves on the stage.

Great find! This would seriously make my day. I want to be like Melissa and come see you - can we ride the train and go to the Library/Wonderland?
Man oh man, children's library... I will just sit here and dream...
What an awesome library. I wish we had something like that around here. I love when things are FREE. Your parents look awesome by the way. Tell them hello for me that next time you talk to them. I have so many fun memories of your parents.
