My college roommate Ashley was in town last week for a family wedding so we met up with her and her kids for the day. We headed to a local museum and nature area that was new to all of us. They had a nice collection of mainly earth science items inside. There were fossils, shells, dinosaurs, gems and minerals and cave and volcano models. One of my favorite things of the day was when Caroline did the sign for "crocodile" when she saw a long dinosaur. My little scientist was communicating quite well.
Helene, Campbell, Katherine and Caroline
Outside there were miles of trails. One of the shorter, closer trails currently has animatronic dinosaurs on display. Amazingly neither of the girls was scared by them though Katherine acted scared for the photos.
Helene thought that it would be a cute photo to have the dinosaur eating her. Katherine did not want to copy Helene.
There was also a very small zoo. Caroline enjoyed that and especially loved climbing the fence.
We wanted to walk the wetlands trail but realized that it was quite a bit further than we had planned to we turned back. There is a lot more to do so we will have to return another day. 
I love this picture of Katherine and Caroline on their hike. The love to hold hands.

This looks really great! My kids would've been really scared though! They've been going through this stage for a while now. I even had to tone down Halloween a bit!
