Oskar and I are home from our weekend at Oma’s. Xavier’s staying until Patty comes up this next weekend. They boys had a great time Saturday burning off some steam running laps in the basement of the old house (still for sale if anyone’s interested), the mall and finally exploring the Elgin Public Museum. After that Chris and I went to the SCCA Chicago Solo awards banquet. I picked up my 9th place trophy (Wahoo!) and some Hoosier Tire door prize SWAG which the kids put to good use this morning. Some commented photos below.

Boy’s are happy to get out of the car Friday night.


Run run run run run run run run run run run run run … okay, we’re ready to go to the mall now!


Scary T-Rex head!!! Roar! Xavier wasn’t pleased with the sound effects or the moving jawbone.


The museum is hands on and displays – a good mix keeping everyone pleased.

Xavier learned to swing for the first time (notice he’s not in a baby swing) and he started kicking his legs to make it work (anything to be just like Oskar.)


It’s the Hoosier Tire Ghost! ~ Spooky ~

Of course the full resolution photos (these are all cell phone pics because I forgot my camera) are on flickr as well as a few more from Saturday and Sunday too!
