Vacation
Quinn and I just got back from a trip to Raleigh, North Carolina to see my friend (and college roommate) Anne and her husband Eric. This is our third year making this pilgrimage, and this time Colleen and her daughter Baylee joined us. Quinn was overjoyed to have an older girl along to play with.
Excited at the airport! EXCITED!
We went to some nature museum, I can't remember what it's called, oh my memory, it is gone. But Quinn got to see what a turtle colony living beneath the sand looks like. For some reason this kind of grossed me out.
The childrens' room rocks. There are a ton of hands-on activities and things to touch. For example, you can stick your hand in this sock-covered can and guess what's inside. A bone? A starfish? Boogers from the kid before you? You never can tell!
After the museum we walked around downtown Raleigh some, and Anne was kind enough to give Quinn a lift.
But really, the trip was about Anne, Colleen and I chattering non-stop and Quinn and Baylee bonding. It was an estrogenfest, and it was fun. Thanks, Anner!

Looks like everyone had a great time! I have a question - does Quinn ever talk about letting her hair grow out? I just remember how I felt at that age and I don't remember liking my hair short. I think Quinn's hair is absolutely adorable! I wish I could wear my hair like that!
