Music, trains and a bounce house!

Wednesday morning we really wanted to go to one of the Woodbury Lakes Shopping Mall's concert series...again MacPhail Musc School was going to be there and sadly again they were cancelled! I'm not sure why they were cancelled last time but this time it was because it was a pretty rainy early morning and it wasn't clear when it was stopping so they cancelled. Bummer :( We found a different fun music show though at the Central Library in St. Paul which is a very fun library for kids...the kids area is HUGE! Wendy's Wiggle, Jiggle, and Jam was performing there and we have seen her in the past and she is quite fun so we enjoyed the show! Linnea even went up by herself when she called for 3 year olds to "help" hold veggies while singing about healthy food. I think she had the peapod! 
So cute!






After the show we left quite quickly because when we are at the Central Library we need to use a parking meter and our time was running up! 

From the library we headed to the Jackson Street Roundhouse which we had passes for from a different trip to the library. I have wanted to take L to this train museum for quite some time but the hours are only 10-4 on Wed and Sat so it was hard to get there. We had a wonderful time touring the trains, playing with some trains, pushing buttons to make the horn sound and playing with magnets. I'd like to go back on a Saturday and go on a caboose ride! I also think they do a fun Christmas event with Santa! 






 





We headed home for lunch and naps, had dinner and then headed out again for Roseville's final Discover Your Park event. Linnea went in the bounce house again but it was shortlived since she got jumped on by a bigger kid...so she crawled out whimpering 



and then we got her a tattoo, 



some popcorn and lemonade and waited for the puppet show to start.



 It was the story of the lion and the mouse and then it was the kids turn to get in and put on their show. This time Linnea was a monkey!

What a fun, busy day!
