Discovery Science Center

 Yesterday. we went to the Discovery Science Center with our friends the Denhams.  They have 4 kids and I had my 3.  Below is a picture of us eating lunch together (Baby Kathleen is not in the picture).  People do stare at times. 
 They had a cool Star Wars exhibit which we enjoyed. 


We also got to take a 5 minute "ride" in the Millenium Falcon.
 Lila likes Yoda...small but very powerful and not to be underestimated...kinda like her!

 Upstairs they have a cool exhibit where you get a digital shopping list and have to roam around a store to find the items on the list.  Sky completed the assignment and got her picture up on the wall of shoppers (top right). 
 Sky and Lila worked on a dinosaur puzzle outside.  Lila really liked this!
 Then we spent some time in a VERY fun Dora and Diego exhibit. 
 Lila's favorite part was Tico's Nuthouse where you had to gather nuts (balls) and load them into various vacuum suctioned tubes.
 Brad ate  his weight in grapes while outside in the dinosaur area.

 R2D2 and C3PO were a big hit.
 More Dora fun...  The kids enjoyed loading plastic coins into the piggie slots. 

 Lila loves Baby Jaquar.
