Day of Wonder With Grandma Nielson

So, Grandma Nielson came to visit last weekend.  We really wanted to see her, so we made plans to spend the day on Monday.  I told her I was thinking of going to the Museum of Nature and Science, and she said she wanted to go!  I was kind of surprised, as I knew it would be a big day, but she came, and was a trooper.  We stayed for about 4 1/2 hours.  We ate a great lunch, and then headed for the exhibits.  It is a great museum!  

 We saw the Space Odyssey exhibit, the Mummy exhibit, the Prehistoric (Dinosaur) exhibit, and the Hall of Life, where we saw a dissection of a sheep's brain.  It was really cool!  The kids got a real kick out of it!

Grandma was such a trooper!  She went everywhere with us.  I think Peter just about gave her a heart attack running beyond our view for a few moments!  But she said she really liked it, and we loved having her with us! 

 After we left the museum, we met Kirk and Steph and their kids for dinner.  It was really nice.  We really enjoyed talking and eating, and the kids had a great time.  After dinner, Sam, Peter and Celine pushed Sarah and Tommy around in the baby seats to the squealing delight both!  What a great day!  Thanks Grandma!  We sure love you!
