MLK Weekend

The Nordic air struck DC this Sunday/Monday, making me a bit stir crazy. First, the boys didn't want to go outside when the weather was nice. And then, when it got cold, none of us wanted to go out at all! And with my one arm, there isn't much I can really do within the house. So, I wandered around the house trying to do small tasks, and Maceo wandered around the house trying to get someone to play Pokemon with him, and Cassius wandered around the house narrating his activities.

Maceo gets one victim to play Pokemon. 

This is a strange combination of floor hockey, Pokemon, and Beyblades and Legos.

On Martin Luther King Day, Mom and Maurice and the boys and I went to the Visionary Arts Museum in Baltimore to celebrate and see some art. Cassius worked hard to make an "I Have a Dream" button while Maceo and I looked at the exhibits.

Maceo and I found the museum entertaining and thought-provoking. 

One of our favorite things was the mechanical theater which has buttons and handles to turn, allowing the boys to control the movements and which piece moves when. 

And then we celebrated MLK's birthday with hot cocoa and birthday cake.

"So, what do you think of the furlough?"

"Can't talk, eating cake!"

It's ok, he did share one bite with me.
