Tom took us on a surprise trip to...

 So we were just sitting around on Saturday trying to figure out what we were going to do for the rest of the day when Tom came over and said-

Tom - "I've got an idea, do you want it to be a surprise?"

Me-(after a moment of hesitation) "Yes!"

  I said yes for two reasons.

#1. I didn't want to ruin his plans because I can usually find a reason why we shouldn't do whatever it is he wants to do, and he usually ends up calling me a
"wet sandwich" from our new favorite movie "The Fantastic Mr. Fox" it is so strangely funny! 

And is one of those movies that can generate lots of "quotes" for Tom,
hence the "wet sandwich" expression which I was trying to avoid this time. 

#2.- Who doesn't like a good surprise? 

I really like them, but Tom usually can't keep the secret by telling me too much info.

So we packed some supplies, and all jumped into the car.

Right before this I was talking on the phone with my friend Nikki and we were discussing this way fun little book that we both just read. I am so excited about it, but I guess that if I kept going on about it I'd be rambling, so I'll just get back to the story, and if you need a good book give me a call and I'll tell ya about it!

So while we were driving Henry tried on Logan's hat, which I thought was, well, adorable!

The roads around here are not what we are used too,

so I took some pics of the drive.

Guess what, Tom didn't ruin the surprise this time, but Logan did.

Oh well it was a great idea anyways.

Tom took us to-

BALTIMORE! 

 It's a pretty cool city.

 We wanted to go to a game, but right when we got there it started to poor.

So we took some pics, then ducked inside their museum to wait it out.

So all in all

apart from the fact that the rain stopped us from going to the game,

and apart from the fact that Tom walked us 6 blocks into the wrong side of town,

and apart from the fact that Logan was staring at a man 

who was wearing at least 12 gross filthy coats and had no shirt or teeth,

and apart from the fact that on our other side there was a Lady digging through the trash,

once we got back to the right side of town walking as fast as we could,

we had a pretty fun trip!

p.s. We wanted to just rent a hotel and drive to New York the next morning and see the sights, but in the end I put the kabosh on that idea, so I actually did end up getting called a "wet sandwich" for the the rest of the weekend.
