Cities Visit

The girls and I were in the Cities last weekend to visit friends. Special thanks to Russ, Heather & Grayson; Nancy, Phil, Faith & Graham; Rick, Kris, Morgan & Sam for hosting us.

We were lucky enough to enjoy a playdate with friends...

Elise and Anja had a great time riding in Grayson's car...

We visited the science museum. Since Elise LOVES dinosaurs, I wanted to give her the chance to see some real fossils, not just pictures in a book. She really liked the dinosaurs...

We played out in the "Big Backyard" at the museum...

But Elise and Anja both enjoyed the human body exhibits the best. Lots of germs and viruses to look at, "patients" to diagnose...

And on a cold, rainy day we visited the Como Park Conservatory. Elise was disappointed we didn't see any "real" animals. Fish were the best substitute, and they were popular. Elise was VERY disappointed I didn't allow her to touch the fish.
