This past week my grandparents were on the way back to IL from AZ and stopped in Denver for a couple of days for a visit. It was great to get to see them. The last time they were in Denver they came along with us while we were getting the inspection done to buy our house(10yrs ago), so it's been a little while.
We decided to make our first ever trip to the Museum of Nature & Science. We ended up buying a family membership and it's a good thing we did as we never did made it out of the Space exhibit. Before we left, we watched Hubble 3D at the imax, it was so incredible! We have tons of exploring yet to do at the museum, including a new exhibit opening in a couple of weeks: Pirates!
Here Samuel is shaping the surface of Mars.....in his own unique way.
In science class at home, we did a crater experiment with flour and rocks. This was a high-tech version of that with steel balls and sand and cameras where you could make the crater and then watch the recording of it being made in slow motion in both forward and reverse.
The tot area had dress-up gear and the cockpit of a shuttle to pilot. Asher is focused on picking up space rocks here.
So glad it worked out for them to come through town!

So THAT'S who those people cuddling your kids are! :) (I saw them in your photo feed & wondered who they were!)
That science museum looks awesome, and right up your boys' alley. Totally fun!
That museum looks so interesting, Grandpa and Grandma said it was neat, especially the Imax movie. Good pictures of all!
