Museum of Natural Science

We have some great friends who scored a whole bunch of free tickets to the Museum of Natural Science and the Butterfly Center. They were kind enough to invite us along on their trip. The kids had so much fun running around with their friends that I don't even think they realized they were having an educational experience! :) I think Connor's favorite part was when a worker handed him a rock and asked, "What do you think that is?" Where Connor then looked at the guy like he was a total idiot. But once he found out it was not a rock, but in fact petrified dinosaur poop... he thought that was the COOLEST thing ever! :) Inside the museum they had a butterfly center that was amazing. Lots of beautiful, tropical plants and gorgeous butterflies just flying around you everywhere. The kids had a hay day trying to catch them. It was a great day... thanks guys!

Looks like you guys had more fun than we did, I just couldn't pay all that money to go into all the cool attractions, I did promise Shayna that I was going to take her to the butterfly exhibit. Want to babysit the boys for me :)

Sounds fun. We used to go to the Natural History Museum in LA all the time...the kids loved it, and my favorite part was always the butterflies. Hey, how do you get writing under each of your pics? Mine has the hardest time looking right with the text.
