Earth Day

Uncle Ivan came to visit us for several days and we were looking for some fun outdoor activities to do with the kids.  Some of David's team from work put on an exhibit booth at a local museum's outdoor trail for Earth Day.  David wanted to go show support for his employees and we thought it'd be a fun day for the kids.  Well Earth Day at the museum ended up surpassing all of our expectations.

There were all kinds of exhibits, crafts, food and more lined up all over a beautiful walking trail through the woods.  Dylan really enjoyed all the craft exhibits.  I can't tell you how many crafts we brought home.  The kids learned how to drink like a butterfly.  Zoe enjoyed exploring all the nature around here such as the sticks, bugs, and leaves.  Dylan's favorite activity was definitely the bounce house while Zoe's favorite activity was learning to play the bongo drums. 

Since a picture is worth a thousand words, I'll skip the words and share these pictures instead.

Our little monkey climbers!

Zoe looking all innocent after I had told her "no."

Zoe playing the bongo drums.  This was her absolute favorite thing of the day.

Now she's ready to teach Dylan.

Such a natural musician and dancer.

Now everyone come join in to play including Daddy.

Dylan the Explorer

D&Z couldn't resist a picture with a big doggy.  Well Dylan couldn't.  I think Zoe was trying to escape.

Dylan coming down the huge inflatable bounce house slide head first.  This boy has no fear!

Hey Mommy!

Dylan would get airborne being so little coming down this giant slide.
