Tellus Museum

We spent yesterday morning at the Tellus Museum with Brody's granny, papa George, Aunt Amber, and his 4 cousins.  Granny bought us all a membership which will be so nice on rainy summer days and cold winter days! Thanks Granny!

Excited to go see the big dump truck.  This is my favorite picture from the day...B loves his big cousins!


They all loved watching the money in the vortex. Brody had to learn that he couldn't touch it or it would just drop to the bottom!


Checking out the dinosaurs.  B has really gotten into dinosaurs lately so I knew he would love looking at the big displays and he definitely did, but he called them all turtles?!?!


Attempt at a group shot...



B's favorite part was the big backyard because he could touch everything! He is still fascinated with dogs and of course had to give this one hugs.


Playing with the lights and mirrors.



Learning about magnets...


Sorting station (ahh...the kindergarten teacher in me loves this one!)


More magnets...


Painting with heat...you can see Andy's handprint on the wall.


Learning about sound vibrations...the betting of the drum makes the birds move on the other end.


He never got the concept of the magnifying glass, but it was hilarious watching him try!


Checking himself out in the mirrors!



He loves to stack blocks and make towers for the sole purpose of knocking them down!


Our little astronauts (B would have no part of getting in the costume!)

Justin (almost 7)


Austin (9)


Will (almost 5)

Panning for gems...



Brody thought that dumping the sand and water out was much more fun than looking for the gems.


Looking for dinosaur bones.  All the kids came home with a shark tooth.




Group shots before we left.



I am sure we will be making a trip back really soon.  The science geek in Danny can't wait to go back with B! :)
