Today my neighbor Gwen and I decided to take our kids out of school (minus her daughter) for Boy Scout Day at the Capital. We also took our friend CJ with us who is our friend from church. His mom had to work, otherwise she would have also joined us. It was an approved "Educational Enhancement" opportunity so the kids would be "excused" from school. We arrived there bright and early (9:30ish) and our first stop was the Governor's Mansion.
Our next stop was hopping on the trolley and making our way to the Kentucky History Museum. The trolley was running all day just for the scouts. It was a very handy way to travel around Frankfort.

After we finished our time at the Kentucky History Museum we got back on the trolley and it dropped us off right in front of the State Capital. We went to the Governor's office, the House and Senate Chambers, the Supreme Court area and more. It was a GREAT time!! I am so glad we decided to spend this day together in Frankfort.
Right outside the Governor's office. He was actually in there while we were taking this picture. His secretary was like, "quick, take a picture!"
Dolls of all the Governor's 1st ladies. Quite a fun collection. Brinley liked this part of the exhibit.
