A day at the museum

I didn't think that going to the museum would have ever been that fun. Steve and I decided that we wanted to take the kiddos to the science museum for a full day of fun. Cherryl insisted on keeping Tiffany because she was going to have Krystal's little girl over here, too. Well, I call Mama T to see if she wants to go with us. We go by and everyone gets loaded into the Durango and off we go. A few stops later and a 2nd trip to Wal-mart, we are at the museum! We park and go inside to find a monstrous line for non-members and a 2 minute wait for the smart ones who bought memberships. Since we have never been to the museum TOGETHER, we trot on over the the long one. We look at the prices and figure out that it would just be cheaper if Steve and I get the family membership and T pay for herself. Under the straps that keep us in line we go into the the nicer and shorter line for members. A hundred and some odd dollars later, we are now members of the Houston Science Museum.

First place we hit, the bathroom. All kids had a full sprite on the way and the bladders were full. So was my hair since Zachary managed to somehow fling his whole bottle to the middle of the Durango and the sticky soda ended up in my hair, the front seat and all over the floorboard in the middle. GREAT!

Then to the butterflies! They were amazing!! So beautiful! T took some really great pictures with her new gorgeous camera. Including some of me by the waterfall for Steve.

We continued to get a snack and another bathroom break. Then off to the exhibit halls. That was an adventure! Have you ever thought of how those teachers feel when they take the class to the museum?? Well, now Steve, T and I know exactly how they feel!! LOL The kids were so excited over everything and they couldn't see enough of it.

We then continued on to see the Frog Exhibit. So Cool!! They had frogs that were no bigger than a 1/2 inch! After the frogs and yet, another bathroom break for Kaitlyn, we decided that that was then end and we were starving!

Chili's on I-10 is where we decide to go...BIG mistake. It was HORRIBLE!!!!! I think that story is best told by Steve and T.

And our last stop was to visit P at work. The kids had a great time playing on the engine and we had a nice time chatting with P. We were all exhausted.

The day could not have been any better, well except dinner. It was simply wonderful to be with family all day!!
