Salvaging Spring Break

We asked EK what she wanted to do since her trip was no more. She promptly responded with a trip to the Natural Science Museum, Lost Pizza, and Barnes and Noble. So, that's exactly what we did and had a fabulous time in doing so. Mom, Haley, EK and I braved the flash flooding in our area to do some exploring at the museum. I guess this was the first time we had gone since EK started reading so she was very interested in reading about each exhibit!
My favorite spot in the whole place....
EK wanted to take this picture to show her brother since his love for alligators runs deep.

The rain let up for a few minutes so we walked around the trails for a bit.



EK would probably say that reading is her favorite thing to do, but she is quite a fan of science and history as well. She loved these microscopes.
EK's buddy Asher is obsessed with all things deer and hunting, so she sent him this picture. She knows the way to his heart!  Bless it!!!
The dinosaur egg exhibit was really interesting. They had a fairly large collection of fossils from all over China. None were from Emma's province put several were from Guangdong and Henan which is where several of our friends are from. Pretty cool!
EK liked hatching out of the egg chair and sitting in the nest.

Future paleontologist, perhaps?
I am so thankful that there are opportunities around town to explore and learn. The Natural Science Museum is fabulous and we had a blast playing together.
