The Science Center...with FRIENDS!

Last Tuesday, after school, Julian, Gabriel and I stopped by the Palmer's. We were going to the science center, to use our sparkling new membership card. The boys have been begging to go back since we initially went and signed up. I needed to go back and take a picture of the pendulum again for school.

Julian was SO incredibly excited to show Natalie and Scott all of the SCIENCE. First? The creature room.


(There was a very active snake...I stayed far away.)


So there's a sign that says something like do not play ON the display...whoops!


My boys were attempting a newscast, however Scott didn't like seeing them on the telly!


The 3 cute boys playing trains!


This part was Scott's favorite, the ball thing where you put balls in, and it goes around to different tubes and the balls end up in different places


Natalie, here, is trying to pack up an egg, to put on the egg drop. She was serious, even quoting Full House as she did it.


The Parachute-for the most aerodynamic egg drop possible


Sad. (Mine splatted too)


The awesome prickly wall (as Julian calls it) and the mom's being FUNNY!


Cheeky Julian


Scott and Gabe...


We had such a fun time at the science center, thank you so much for coming!

Wordless Wednesday

Our day in Mason City, IA

So the drive to Mason City, Iowa is 2 hours and 5 minutes. I was ALL stressed out because we left 15 minutes late. I forgot that the speed limit is 70, so realistically, it was less than 2 hours 5 minutes. Anyway, the drive is really peaceful. Julian was quiet the whole time, and Gabe slept the entire way there. I blasted some music after Julian's 'Rocket' CD was over. I was able to think a lot about Kristy, and listed to the Music and Lyrics soundtrack, which is a CD she loved a lot.

Like I said before in my earlier post, MJ and Ginger, along with a few others have really been there for me this year. Ginger had a similar experience happen to her, her friend was killed by her S/O. So she's been a huge help to me, and knows what it feels like. It was nice to finally meet the people that have been such a help to me.

On to the pictures.

These first ones are cutie cute Gabriel and his TEETH! Also he's chewing on Julian's monkey.
