A Day at the Science Center

We hadn't been to the science center for a long time, so we decided it would be a fun thing to do on one of Matt's last vacation days. The kids had a blast! You know they are having a good time when they are too busy to ask us for stuff or complain of hunger!

While Matt was off doing big kid stuff with the big kids, Ava, Sadie, and I spent time in the toddler area. Sadie loved having some freedom and Ava loved being the "big" sister and showed her all around.









We thought Sadie would be a little unsure of the dinosaur exhibit, but I think it was her favorite part. She wanted out of the stroller to get closer and say HI to each one.




The kids really enjoyed the butterfly exhibit. They spent a lot of time trying to identify the different types.





Sadie just pointed and said, "OOOOH" every time she saw a butterfly.















At the end of our trip Matt took a ride on a high-wire bicycle balanced by weights. There was a moment when he started to lean, but he regained his balance and made it all the way around! Marshall wanted to try....but he didn't quite weigh enough. Can't say I was too disappointed about that!

Yikes!! That Bike thing looked really scary! Is there any real danger involved in that? The science center looks really fun. I loved the picture of sadie with the Butterfly's. Oooh!
