Today we packed the car and spent the rest of the morning hanging out at the parents’ before we left for Madison. The car has more stuff in it on the way back than on the way up. Emily says this is because we are taking “those stupid baseball cards” home, but I think it is because of all the crap that we have bought. In all honesty, I think we both contributed to the tail end of the Pilot scraping down the highway!
Sara got the kids packed up, and we made our way through rural Wisconsin to the capitol, Madison. This was the first time we would see the Toney’s new house, so we were excited for that. We were also excited to spend one last day with the Toneys and the little guys! When we arrived we got the tour and quickly headed down to a local restaurant, Benvenuto’s, to have some Italian food before making our way down to State Street. The restaurant was very delicious and the service was great. After getting our fill we headed down to State Street, which is the main street that goes right through the middle of the UW Madison campus and the capitol building.
State Street was active but not quite as bustling as it is when school is in session. We walked all the way down the street to the capitol building where I took a bunch of pictures as the sun was setting. The little guys started to get restless so we headed back to the Toney residence, but not before making the nightly stop at Dairy Queen.
Stay tuned for tomorrow as we hit the open road again!
