Since we had to adjust our plans coming down because Duluth Minnesota children museum was closed on monday, we figured okay we drive home through sioux falls, sd and stop by the science museum we visited 2 summer ago. Nothing has changed.  Putting the correct bones in the correct spot in the body. A fun interactive version of how the brain works. R spent majority of his time here. He sure loves how mechanism work. while M built a house.  I think CFL building futures is in this boys future.  planted some turnips in the garden. Harvesting the food to take it to the store. A fun interactive way of milk production works.  Mixing colour's with light.  Last but not least build a creative.  Definitely not as exciting and new from the other science centre's because we have been here before but another 80$ usd saved. And great way to br...

Children's Museum Minnesota

Made another trip back into St. Paul. R calculated that this would have cost us $80usd for entire family to visit this museum. Good thing we get into for free. Starts off with some lights you turn it changes the shades the more you turn. Pretty cool.  When we arrived there were school groups. Ugh! But shortly after arriving they had to depart for lunch then thr museum got quiet and calm again. Thought traveling during school hours we avoid the crowds haha. This was cool, you had to build patterns as many as you can and when this one tilt see how many were left standing. The other board was build as many patterns up as you can before the shake comes.  R majority spend his time on the Stem buildings, he made interchangeable arms for his creation.  Another R spent most of his time on.  While.... M explored the post office, vet, grocery, fire truck. And when the sc...

Mall of America

The main attraction...  Everything is so white and big, where as WEM is stretched out. MOA goes up in height and around.  This will be todays lunch, because why not. Maybe because its a famous name and we all know and like.  This was just cool to see but I do not need, i have enough fat on me haha.  We had lunch here at Jimmy buffets yesterday because Tuesdays it was kids eat free.  Then of course I had to check out and buy some yarn from the crochet store.  Ended the day with a walk around the neighbourhood to a couple little free libraries and to the park. It was cold, you could feel the cold front coming in with the snow.

Oh where do we start....  I did find that there were MORE rides where M could ride himself than at galaxyland at West edmonton mall. And more rides as in thrill rides.  The good big brother R is he chose a ride to go on with M. To begin let's ease into it...  R and Brad went on this ride. I am surprised R went on typically this isnt a ride he does. He is at the very back. And this ride went as high as the roof. And of course R and I had to do the swings. Our favorite ride. We made a mistake going on the log chute early instead of later. But luckily R got more wet than me, better him than me right? But he was WET so we had to go shopping for dry clothes for him.. M loved the Pepsi orange streak Rollercoaster. Werid how he could ride more rides here but back at WEM there are more limitations for him.  Like this ride back at WEM is called the orbitor and M is not tall enough to ride it b...
