Hey Cuz!

After our beach adventure, we drove back to Durham to visit with Alex's cousin, Ryan. The boys had met once before, about 8 months ago. Wow, they have both grown so much! It took a fair amount of nap juggling, but we had some fun adventures. We went to the Museum of Life & Science. It is a wonderful hands on museum for kids of all ages. There is a drum garden, barnyard, butterfly house, wind garden, bears, wolves and nerdy exhibits too!

The next day was more low key with a short trip to the neighborhood park for swinging and sliding. I took along some bubbles and we made a friend at the playground. He was more interested in the bubbles than Alex or Ryan. Oh well, at least someone appreciated them!

Finally, a trip to Durham Bulls Athletic Park for some baseball. The Bulls aren't very good, but hey, we're used to rooting for bad teams so it all worked out. More family just happened to be passing through the area that evening, so we had a chance to visit with some of the Florida relations too.

Our final planned adventure had to be cancelled. Sadly, our other NC friends were sick and couldn't come out to play. We hope they are feeling better and are really sorry we missed them.

We had so much fun on our trip and are looking forward to another visit! Your coast or Ours?!
