We finally made it on our monthly outing. Yay! It was really windy today and raining on and off, so we went to the Las Vegas Natural History Museum. This place was fun. I thought it might be a little boring, but we took a chance, and went anyways, and I'm glad we did.
It was only $10 for all of us, which was perfect for our budget. We spent 2 hours looking at huge dinosaurs, fossils, live sharks, stingrays, fish, Africa, and a TON of animals! All of the displays were interactive, and most were kid-friendly. There was a room that was completely hands-on. Adam and Grace loved digging for fossils and looking at x-rays of different animals in it.
It was the perfect size: not so small, that you feel like you didn't get your money's worth, and not so huge that you feel the need to drag your toddler from room-to-room TO get your money's worth.
I think today was one of the most perfect days ever. We woke up to rain (love rain!), went to the museum for a few hours, came home for lunch and naps, cleaned up a bit, played some games, and tonight, had pizza, an FHE lesson, and played Xbox together. There was no fighting or whining. Everyone got along and had fun.
It was just a really, really good day. I'm so grateful for days like this. And I'm so grateful to have such great kids and an awesome husband. I can't believe how blessed we are.

Isn't it nice that Heavenly Father blesses us with wonderful days like this. Now, put it permanently in your mind, so on those rough days, you remember the good ones, too. You do have a wonderful family
Sounds like you all had a really fun time. The days that are not so great are good too though it makes the perfect ones just that much better. oh and I would love to have someone to entertain Ethan while we talked. See yah latter.
