SCIENCE!

Sunday we took the family down to Chicago to see the Museum of Science and Industry.  We tried to get to most of the exhibits, but we still had a few things we had wanted to see.

There was a farming exhibit where the girls got to climb on a tractor and a combine.  An exhibit about the science behind storms, tornadoes, avalanches, etc.  The twins had a great time in there.  The 40' tornado that you can change was pretty interesting.

The model train exhibit and the coal mine were good too.  Jenna covered her ears the entire time in the coal mine exhibit, maybe just because she finally heard something louder than herself.

We got a few pictures up, but there was really so much to see there that we were pretty busy.  We had to make sure we made it to the American Girl store before they closed.  Elsa and Nora finally saved up enough to buy their own doll.  And they we very happy girls afterwards.

National Donut Day?!

Yesterday as we were grocery shopping we realized we almost forgot to celebrate National Donut Day.  At the talk of donuts Jenna started asking "I want donut."  And then she sealed the deal by giving this face:

She seemed so innocent and incapable of causing mayhem, she did a good job selling it.  Donuts were acquired.
