DINO-SAURS

On St. Patty's Day Nikki and I felt it was best for our sanity to get out of the house with the crazy kids. Having 4 kids in a house with the oldest being 3 is enough said. This does not include Kylee and Alyssa because they are gone all day at school and they are easy. We decided to take the kids to a dinosaur museum. The car ride to the museum was PAINFUL! Ryann and Bryant seriously have a love-hate relationship and it is nothing but hate in the car. Once I put in an obnoxious children's CD and started singing and clapping to the music it completely changed the mood. I am sure Bryant thinks his Aunt Angela is one crazy lady but it worked. Upon entering Ryann was so scared which then I think made Bryant scared. After just a few minutes of being there Ryann asked me in a very serious and scared voice if we were going to die. Here we were trying to take them to a place we thought would be fun and now they may need therapy. Their was lots of hands-on activities that kept them distracted from the idea of a dinosaur coming and eating them. We even managed to end the afternoon with a rather painless lunch considering our four kids and Ryann's and Bryant's personality.


Ryann's face says it all. She wanted me to hold her.

At the very end they finally relaxed.


Addy learned that sand doesn't taste the greatest!

Digging for bones.

Addy thought it would be more fun to undress.
