Snow At Last

Finally... a day to play outside in the snow. Kate has been super-disappointed in the lack of snow this winter, and has asked every day to play out in the small amount we got this week. It was finally warm enough today, so we headed out.
She loved it.
Trying to pick up the "hugest snowball ever".
Too heavy!
It's hard to hate snow when she has so much fun in it!

Science Center

Yesterday we took a trip downtown to the Science Center. We weren't sure how much the kids would enjoy it, but we stayed for a solid 3 hours and they loved it!

Kate checking out the snakes.
Andrew peering at the dinosaur bones.
Favorite thing #1-putting golf balls at the top of this ramp & watching them roll down.
Favorite thing #2: splashing in the water and getting soaking wet.
Kate & Daddy worked very hard on making a rocket ship. They were so professional that Jason overheard another kid saying to his mom "Can't we just ask them for help? Please??"
Here is Kate blasting her rocket. It flew quite the distance! She has been really into outer space the past few weeks, so this was a perfect activity for her.
