ballerina

This is Rory demonstrating her new shoes. There is a circle in the sole that spins so that when you wear them you can spin like a ballerina.

taxi driver

He had a fever of 102.5 the day before and felt much better but not completely and he still looked a little sick.

face art

My kids like to give themselves tattoos with markers.

This is Batman.

This is a pink child.

hershey park 3

This is at the bottom of a water ride. Gage and Rory are to the right of the man in green. They found the best spot to get soaked and then stood there for fifteen or so splashes.

And then they froze until they dried.

Crosby wanted to ride everything so we finally put him on a ride with Rory and he spent most of the ride crying.

On the ferris wheel.

On the monorail.

Rory and Gage loved this ride. They got off and right back on 4 or 5 times.

Some Hershey Park pictures from last weekend.

It's hard to see, but this was supposed to be a picture of Piper's face sticking through the fence. She is on Rory's right side.

Piper and Rory are in the second helicopter back.

north museum

We visited the North Museum on Saturday. It's a small, not very exciting museum in Lancaster but it has a few cool things. There is a Discovery Room full of hands on stuff for kids (much like the Discovery Room at the Carnegie but not as big or as cool) and the basement houses the Cabinet Museum full of cases of birds and insects and all kinds neat things.

Piper and Crosby watching turtles.

Gage scaring a dinosaur.

Looking at birds in the Cabinet Museum.

This Lego table is also in the basement for some reason. It seems to be set up for bridge building but there isn't any information on it. (Gage really likes wearing mismatched shoes.)

These are all pictures from the Discovery Room.

This dinosaur is really cool. It makes noise and moves its head and tail and will pretend to eat if you put something in its mouth.

Watching bees. 

Gage with a bobcat skull.

Giant caterpillar puzzle.

Fun with gears.
