Grandpa's Pockets

Grandpa spent Thanksgiving weekend with us, and Holden found a great place to store all those leaves... his pockets :)
 
 






Leaves!








Highlight

Just found this picture from our weekend in WV a month ago... definitely the highlight of *that* particular trip.
 

More from Discovery Place

We had multiple cameras going...

Discovery Place

Holden is just at a really great age to 'do' stuff with now... we checked out the bigger Discovery Place museum over Thanksgiving break and she had a blast. Some stuff was too old for her, but for the most part she enjoyed all of the exhibits!

Gigantic water table, thank goodness they provide smocks :)


Wall of Legos!


Touching various sea creatures:


Where's Holden? Building a camo fort:


Chalkboard wall:


Bed of nails:





This particular science lesson was a bit over my head... pulleys and gravity?


Getting a lift from Daddy:


Wind power was probably the coolest, stuffing scraps of paper up the wind tunnel and seeing them shoot out and fall around us!



I *think* Daddy was having more fun at building towers than Holden... 




All in all a successful and fun day!



Happy Thanksgiving!

I don't know about your house, but Thanksgiving around here means busting out the fairy wings :)


Discovery Kids

We went to Discovery Kids for the first time to celebrate Tully Claire's birthday. It's a really great space and Holden had a blast... until she got her first bloody nose that had her so upset she pee'd her pants! So needless to say we had to leave early, only to see a note on my car that someone had scraped against it in the parking lot... not the best day we've had, but it sure started out great!

Lila's in all the pictures with her, those two are inseparable!








Making Friends

This could be a good sign as we gear up towards a Santa picture...


Press On Nails

Out of control...
