A Quick Trip to Raleigh

The girls loved the Natural History Museum - except for the dinosaur room. I think it gave Addie nightmares. (Luckily the snow cone made up for it.)

Hill Ridge farms was just outside of Raleigh. We rode the train, fed the animals and giant catfish (disgusting), mined for gems, and slid down the giant slide.

We also found time to take turns going to the temple, hit an outlet mall, and most importantly, have lunch at the Cheesecake Factory - YUM!

Aw, Aric, I can't believe you let Addie kick your trash like that on the obstacle course (top right picture)- it doesn't even look like she's breaking a sweat!

Oh, how fun! Addie looks like she's having so much fun. Those girls are just too cute!

Great pictures. And I'm with you on the most important part of the trip - food always comes before religion!

That looks like a lot of fun. What great memories you are making. (not sure the girls will remember but you will.)

So is this the skinny white guy next to the huge teeth---who wants to know if he can mix the chicken? Sorry, it just doesn't work that way. But you do look pretty brave standing there! The girls all look cute too!
