Whew! Life is busy! Not sure quite what with - just regular life stuff.

While my Mom was here, we took the girls to the Bay Area Discovery Museum in Sausalito. It was the second time we've been and we really like it. It's so fun for the girls - definitely a happy place. Plus the view from it is amazing!

After that, we walked out onto a pier and watched some crab fishers (is that a techinal term?). The pier we went on was right below the Golden Gate and the view of the city was amazing. It was a gorgeous day.

Then we headed in town to go to Boudin. My mom recently took an artisan bread baking course and she wanted to go to Boudin. I don't typically like sourdough but Boudin sourdough is a whole 'nother story! I loved it! There was a museum that we walked through and we could see the happenings of the bakery through glass walls. And it was surprisingly family friendly. Everyone seemed happy that we had my girls there and they were given three sourdough turtles between the two of them. Obviously, I would've loved to have spent more time in the museum reading all the the fun facts (that's kind of my thing), but it wasn't possible. I enjoyed what I did gleam. 

A seriously great day!

This is such a clever activity. The kids lift washers to the top and watch them fall. They fall at different speeds according to their sizes and they "swing around" the pole. My girls spent a lot of time with this!a day north
