You are never too Old!

I finally got to sit down and post my pictures of the children's museum a week and a half ago. My little hubby has recently been the one to update the blog (Partially because I think he like being on the computer). I really should been sleeping right now but. . . I slept all afternoon because of the anesthesia but hey that is a story for another day.
Anyway, I have been wanting to go to the children's museum for years now. Yet I thought I should bring some kind of a kid with me to the museum so that I could fit in with the rest of the crowd. I was so excited to find that my cute little nieces and nephews were coming along for the adventure also. It is so fun to see the variety of ages and how they are discovering the wide world around them. I only wish I was a little bit smaller so I could discover and Play with the children without looking like some adult in special Ed.



Here is Emma with all of her blonde headed cousins, You can't tell that they are all related.



Left to Right
Little Leighna, Awesome Addie, Kick'in cool KJ, M&M Emma, and Lovely Livi

These little Blondie's are ready for fun!















Well as soon as the children saw what lay ahead they were off like a bullet well all except the one that couldn't walk yet. Compliments to the chauffeurs AKA - Grandma and Grandpa

We first greeted by a giant contraption that, sucks up balls and send them every which way and spits them out in a huge bin full of balls. It was like the tubes you see at the bank that sucks up the shuttle to go to the bank. The kids loved it. Balls and kids are always a good combination for giggles and smiles.
This is KJ totally amazed that a ball can do that
Full of wonder........


Here is little Leighna trying to get in on some of the action
Livi's turn now
Wow what a rush of air!

Here is Emma and I in the water discover zone! Water seems to have a magnetic pull on children

We were amazed to a little people town full of you guessed Little people this was the farm area
Emma just loved the chicken's
What does a Emma say"Cluck Cluck"
Every time you took a chicken out of the coop they started to cluck

Here is my little Garden Imp

Ogah
Chugga Big red Truck


Addie, seems to be having road rage at the moment.
Shaking your fist will never get you any where Addie.


This is a little disturbing.
this place really brought the
kid out in two brothers


Aunt Silvia thinks this rush hour traffic is such a headache





Who knew that Trina and Emma are extreme sport Rock climbers, look at that dare devil rock climbing up side down and with out a harness!












Emma thinks that she'll stay firmly on the ground or in Aunt Silvia arms


Then we went to the birds nest. Emma just loves jumping on all the birdies furniture. This little bird house was too cute we just had to get a picture together













Here is Emma and Aunt Sil cruising on the back of the giant very mild mannered swan.Who knew swans could get that big!















This area of the museum was full of discovery! Addi, Leighna, and uncle Jonny figured out how to make paper space ships. It is amazing how much entrainment a coffee filter, fan and a plastic tube will bring.
Grandma and Porter who is wide eye at everything around him




This was by far the coolest thing ever at the children's Museum the was a real live helicopter it even had a radio that relayed to the air tower and it made exact sound like we were all about to take flight. Soon as the kiddies figured out that we weren't going to take flight they were all over the helicopter. It was a treat for the whole family to see what Uncle Nick fly's around in all day.









Here is another daredevil Grandma fly the helicopter with her head out the window and a grandchild in her arms. Silly grandma!







Channel 5 News
This just in. . . . . . .there seems to be a severe case of silliness aproaching the Allred family













All the world is a stage
especially when your under 12!
I was surprised the Miss Marie didn't get on the stage and start reciting Shakespeare.
