Day 5

I am soooo tired. We took the kids to the Discovery Museum today. They are under construction and 1/4 of the museum was unavailable. Still, they manged to enjoy 6 hours there. Yes, you read correctly, 6 hours. We arrived at 10:00, just as they were opening. We left at 4:00, only 1 hour before closing. Well worth it! Almost everyone was happily in their beds by 6:15. They were told they could read for a while. Most of them just fell asleep. Tomorrow we are sending Ethan and Collin to play with a friend. They need a break. Everyone loved dinner. Pot pie in a crockpot, with a homemade whole wheat bisquik topping. Love my new cookbooks.

Their favorite thing was this virtual reality sports game. We often had to kick them off for others waiting in line.

Nothing quite like being surrounded by a giant bubble.

Lunch was entertaining, as all lunches are.
Good old reliable trains.

I will add, there was one in the bunch begging to leave almost every 15 minutes after lunch. JOE. He too survived.
