Natural History/Experiment

We went to the Natural History Museum with our friends the Atkinson's and had a lot of fun. Anyone in the area should really go, it is pretty amazing. We saw dinosaur bones, and the kids can be archeologist, as well as a ton of bugs and live reptiles. Those were Kurtis' highlights, I enjoyed the butterfly pavilion. Here are some great photos we took.We also did an interesting experiment with Playdough called "Can Playdough Float?". We put a ball of playdough into a bowl of water and it sank. Then we put a thing of playdough in the shape of a boat (flatten the ball, and make sure it has sides and a flat bottom) and it did FLOAT!!

Circus was in town!!

Last weekend we went to the circus, it was so much fun. This was my face the entire time...Not sure what my hair is doing, I was really stuffy hot!!
Here are some of the things we saw at the circus, I did not get a photo of Kurtis' favorite thing which was the people shooting from the cannons!!!!After the circus we went home for Kurtis to have quiet reading time, but I think the circus wore him out!!
Thank you Serene and Colette for a very fun day!!

Aunt Jackie Time...

Aunt Jackie came to visit us from Washington State, we enjoyed time with her and appreciated all of her help!! Jake thanks for letting us borrow her!!

We met an interesting clown at Wendy's who made us a balloon sword and flower?!!

Kurtis started playing with the baby items, I think he is a bit too big!

Aunt Jackie helped Kurtis make a Herbie car, and a Herbie Submarine, yes he LOVES Herbie the Love Bug!!!

Here is an update on our plants, they are growing a lot now if they would just sprout tomatoes or sunflowers we would be in business!
