more fun things

We took the kids to the museum of ancient life on Tuesday. They had so much fun. For the month of August they have two dollar tuesdays, we were able to get the whole family in for just $8 what a deal!

If you don't like being around a million people it might not be such a great deal. I figured it would be busy just not quite as busy as it was. We had to wait in line for almost an hour before we even got in and then it was pretty crowded inside. The kids still had fun.

We had the Staten family reunion over the weekend. I think it was the coldest weekend in August in history. I checked the weather and thought it would be a little colder than normal but it was a lot colder than normal, the weather man was way off on the high temps for that weekend. We went to Riverdale and thankgoodness they have their natural flowing hot spring pool otherwise swimming would have been out of the question. Travis was a good sport though and took the kids down the water slides they are really liked it even though they always came back freezing.

My kids hung out in their pj's for most of the time on Sat. except when we were swimming because it was the warmest thing we had, because yes I forgot everyones jackets. I was so glad Sun. turned out to be warmer so we could enjoy a few more outside activities.

Since I had so much extra face paint from Chase's B-day party the kids think I need to paint their faces or arms all the time. Here is a few of the most recent ones we have done.
