"Mommy is Crazy" Day

Today was one of the "Free Fun Fridays" in the Summer where certain museums and things let everyone in for free. One of them was the Higgins Armory Museum in Worcester. I've been interested in taking the boys there so we head to Worcester and stop first at Wild Willy's burgers (somewhere I have been wanting to try). The food was good, but the best part was watching a HUGE freight train go by right outside the window!
After lunch we head to the Higgins museum and there is a line out the door, down the block and around the corner. ... Not doing it. 
New plan! We head into Boston. I decide to drive and have an EPIC FAIL getting in town. I missed a turn and was suddenly back on the Pike heading out of Boston. Sigh. New plan! Head to a Newton T station. We greenline it in- waking Torin up from a nap in the car to get SMOOSHED on a very crowded green line.

But we got pretzels at South Station, so all was right with the world. 
Then walked over to the Children's Museum.

... Toddlers with saws... what could go wrong?

The road/ramp section in the construction site is always a hit.

It was a crazy, hectic, crowded, unplanned, wacky day. But hey, it's Summer and we enjoyed it. Time for bed!
