a fun day at Sci-Port

Today we went to Sci-Port to the "Itty Bitty Scientist" workshop to meet Cameron and Holly. We haven't been to Sci-Port in forever but there are so many fun things for the kids do there. The workshop was cute. They brought out a guinea pig, a turtle and a gekko for the kids to pet. Little Sanders wasn't too crazy about petting any of them. They had also had lots of art and craft supplies for the kids to make their own animal. Sanders and Cameron had fun doing this! After the craft, we let the kids play for a little while around the museum and then headed to Lila's for lunch.

Having fun at Lila's for lunch

Tonight we went to the club for Mexican buffet night. We got there at 5:45 and were walking out the door by 6:20pm. It was record timing for going out to dinner but it was great. It was just enough time for the kids to eat and to get out of there before they got wild. We went for a treat at TCBY after dinner and I got my favorite - chocolate and peanut butter shiver with peanut butter cups. Mae had her "pink" icecream and Sanders had his usual pink sprinkle cookie. That was our second trip to TCBY in one week. We are becoming regulars.

We are off to the Great Wolf Lodge tomorrow with the Reagans, Tuckers and Kendricks. Little Sanders has been counting down the days until this trip. Tonight he said "mommy I am so excited about going to the water park tomorrow". I think Great Wolf had a bigger impact on him than Disney World did. The kids are going are going to have so much fun together (as will the mommies). I'm sure I'll have lots of picture to share when we get back.
