To make sure that Adam and the rest of his clan would come to see us every time they come through Indianapolis, we took the kids to the Children's museum. Now Adam and April will have to endure whining of a different kind if they don't stop by! EVIL LAUGH!

We were only there for a couple of hours, but that is always enough or it is just TOO MUCH.
