&t The Taylor Family: A Full Day

A Full Day

We all decided to get up a bit earlier today so we could do a lot of running around. After our homemade blueberry coffeecake with sliced fruit on the side I called mom which I do each morning to check on the kids. Peter had set up iChat before we left so we were able to see the kids via the computer's webcam and they could see us. We played with a bunch of the effects and the kids thought we were very silly. After we said good bye to the children we all headed out to the KitchenAid Factory where we took a tour. We learned all about how the small appliances were made, painted, and assembled. It was really fascinating and there was a lot more to it than I had ever given thought to. After the tour we headed downtown to the KitchenAid store and museum. We walked around a bit and even had a sample but didn't find anything we couldn't live without so there were no purchases made. KitchenAid discontinued my favorite color, the cobalt blue, so I was not really impressed with much of the stuff for sale, I was really hoping to find some utensils in the blue. On the way back to the house we stopped at Wegerzyn Gardens. Javan and I had gone last year when we visited but it was a little later in the year and there was a lot in bloom. This year they were doing a bit of work on the area and really only had the daffodils blooming. It was still a nice walk around and Peter had fun in the musical garden. After a quick stop at the house we drove over to Young's Jersey Dairy Farm where they have a small petting farm and make their own ice cream. We went in and got some of the ice cream that we enjoyed outside in the beautiful weather. On the same property they have a putt putt golf place called Udders and Putters. We did this last year also but they have two courses and Peter loves putt putt. We all did fairly well and were all neck and neck throughout the whole game. Noah and I got one hole in one and Tina got two but it was Noah who took first and the rest of us all tied for second. At this point it was getting late so we headed back home once again to make up some delicious Kofta Pitas (greek burgers). After dinner we ended the night with some Mario video games and hanging out. All in all, another great day.
