City Bus Adventure

For some reason, Sam is taken with the city bus. Seeing it makes her lose her mind. Every day she gets dressed, puts on her shoes, dons her backpack and tells me she is "ready to go on city bus". I'm not sure where this obsession came from, but it is heartbreakingly cute. She got her wish yesterday. After spending our normal morning of breakfast, school time and whatnot, we headed out to the bus stop to wait for the big city bus.

Bags packed, ready to go.

After waiting for about 20 minutes, the bus came and our adventure started. We hopped on and were off and running ( or riding ). Sam was so excited to see everything from the "big windows" that she couldn't contain herself. Giggling, laughing, playing and soaking it all up was so much fun to watch.

After our first bus, we snacked and waited for the next bus on our trip.

Our second bus was right on time and brought us to our first true destination - lunch.

FRENCH FRIES!!!

With lunch down and out, we headed for our final destination...our friends Hugh and Dustin.

Sam got to help fix and then play on some of Hugh's pinball tables...

Thanks to Hugh for having us over and providing us with not only a destination for our adventure.

Sam then got a special treat for the first time - venison!

( No pics of the venison, just picture me too busy to take any due to wolfing down some great deer meat. )

All in all, a great day with Sammy. Momma had the idea of us getting a pass to the Children's Museum and embarking on more "City Bus Adventures". I like that idea almost as much as Sammy does.
