Hurray. I just discovered that we have a Dollar Movie Theater about five minutes from my house. I am so excited. Since we haven't seen a movie in the theater for quite sometime every movie showing is new. I am going to take the kids to see Horton hears a Who this morning. Yeah. Detroit has been good to us. We have discovered lots of things to do. We really like the zoo. There is an amazing polar bear, seal, and penguin exhibit. Similiar to the New Jersey Aquarium, you walk through this tunnel and the animals swim all around. Its very entertaining. I love zoos.
We also found this amazing toy store out in Berkley. I have inherited my Mom's love of toys. I love specialty toys that are well made and that encourage creativity and imagination. Playmobil is my favorite brand, but I also love Quircetti. The toy store is having their Christmas in July sale, so everything in the store is 20 percent off. I can spend hours just looking at toys. Thankfully, the store has stations for the kids to play in including a full Thomas the train play area so that I browse to my hearts content.
In other news, the boys are doing great. Donny is continuing to smile and laugh at everything the boys do. Hewitt is finally talking more. And Thomas has found some good friends to play with. Thomas went to Vacation Bible Camp last week and learned many songs and stories about Jesus. I was happy that he could get out of the house for a few hours everyday. Its too bad our church doesn't have a Vacation Book of Mormon camp. That would be sweet.
In Steve news, he absolutely loves his job. Although he has been averaging three hours a night the past three nights, he still has enough adrenaline to get up in the morning and be excited about work. I wonder how long this is going to last. Either he will get burnt out or he will have to cut back. I just can't imagine him keeping this pace. For now, though, all is well.
