More Discoveries

Wesley's friend Brayden was recovering from a fall and a near trip to the emergency room when he asked his mom if he could take Wes to the Discovery Science Center.  What a sweet friend!  We were so glad we were free and that Brayden didn't need stitches!  Here's just a few pictures:

They had a new NASA exhibit outside, so while we waited for our friends (Wes was way to excited to wait to meet them in the parking lot) we got to check out this cool space suit.  Inside it was pretty crowded with  field trips, but we ate an early lunch and by the time we were done, the place had cleared out.  So nice to pretty much have free reign!

 Inside, the boys checked out the earthquake room:
 Waiting so patiently...what's about to happen????
Shake, shake, shake...and they all fall down! (I don't think the earthquake was that strong, I think their imaginations were though!)

 Wes loves this smoke ring maker thing (???) He says it's volcano smoke because he's really into volcanoes right now.  I think it's partly because he really wants us to take him to Hawaii, where we've told him there are lots of volcanoes. 

 This giant pin wall kept us all entertained for quite a while!

 And a little science lesson before we headed out.  Thanks again friends, we had a great time!
