DADDY'S DAY OFF + 2 MUSEUMS = LOTS OF FAMILY FUN!

John has every other Friday off.

We LOVE having a 3day weekend twice a month!

The kids especially love having daddy home an extra day.

Last Friday was daddy's Friday off and we had passes for free admission to the Children's Museum again AND our Science Museum..and they happen to be about 2 blocks apart...so we had a fun family day hitting both museums WITH daddy!


First up -the Children*s Museum

don't know if you really see this -but I LOVED seeing the fall leaves right next to a cactus.:)

we have a new camera so decided to try out the timer and try to get a group photo after our picnic lunch.

Next up-the Science Museum

in Biruk's referral info -it said he wanted to be a pilot....he sure did seem to enjoy "flying" this plane. :)

this is Biruk behind a screen -and somehow there is a sensor and the bubbles move around you depending on how you move.

depending on how fast you pedal, the soccer ball moves up the tube

wheelchair racing.

this was great.

taught the kids how tough being in a wheelchair is ~especially on your arms!

of course daddy had to race too. :)

"bed of nails" :)
it actually felt good on my bad back!

these are crazy but great photos...this apparatus was teaching about momentum.

the girls didn't care what they were learning -they just liked spinning

on our way home.

what a great way to spend a day as family!
