Family Day

We had a family fun day today. After breakfast and shopping, we headed to the St. Louis Science Center. The first thing we did was see the Pirate Exhibit. It was a bit scary for the boys, especially Colin, but they did get a couple small pirates, a flag and a treasure chest to play with. As soon as Colin picked his out he kept yelling "Arrrrrrrr!"

We don't have any pictures since I forgot to get previous pictures off the camera. So I have included other family's photos from the internet. Just photo shop my kids into them.




I really like what we did for lunch. We brought our own sandwiches, pears, crackers, and raisins. The only thing that was thrown away was one napkin. Neither Kevin nor I really like what most places offer (it is too greasy), and people throw away so much stuff! Cups, plates, forks, knives, plates, wrappers, cardboard boxes, napkins. It just seems as if people don't mind that so much is disposable. I am a bit proud of us. We have started bringing as much with us that we can, like forks and plates, and even a pizza cutter to cut up food for the kids.

Anyway, after dinner we are heading to the pool. Colin has informed me that he will go down the kiddie slide. I will let you know if he does, but I won't have any pictures of it.
