Mad Scientists

Photobucket
Trevin came to visit today and boy did Asher have fun with this guy! They threw rocks in the creeks, played at the apartment play place, tried desperately to dig a lucky penny out of a tight spot, did cannonballs at the swimming pool, ate cupcakes, and watched Asher's favorite movie Montie (or Monkey for Curious George).

My favorite activity was the science experiments. Did you know Hobby Lobby is filled with all kinds of projects for boys? Any kind of project a boy could dream of is there. Trevin picked out a Lab in a Bag: Test Tube Discoveries.

We have serveral things going on here. Bleeding paper, lava lamps, bouncing marbles that grew in water and gravity goo.

I had about as much fun as the boys. Trevin is so well behaved and I was very impressed with his patience with my two year old.

Asher was fascinated with the robots on the plant tour. We couldn't take pics while inside so I took these print screens from a Youtube video of the plant.

After the tour we hit up the carnival for some fun!

Moon bounce! side note: Did y'all see the news video of the moon bounce that airlifted with kids inside? That's scary. I did notice that all of these were staked.

Switchfoot in concert. Miles, Kyler and I were right up against the stage. We couldn't hear ourselves talk after.Following, there was a fireworks show. It was huge and rivaled any July Fourth show I've seen. It was crazy.
