Pacific Science Center

We went to the Science Center today.
Arriving right at opening time has definite perks.
The Center has a Circus exhibit right now, and the tightrope and the acrobat attractions end up having very long lines that take FOREVER to get through.
But, getting there early gets you in a short line that doesn't take long at all!
Lilly and Maggie did the tightrope, but our time was too short to do the acrobat part today.
We'll be going back later this week or next.
I know I'm biased and all, but I do have to comment on my daughters.
The boys ahead of them in line were too scared to barely even step out of the gate up there, let alone go across the tightrope in less than 10 minutes each.
MY GIRLS went straight out, walked across and back, in about 3 minutes each.
They got the job done, no monkey business. They're so awesome. :)






Lilly and Maggie contorted into human pretzels.

They tried on circus clothing.


We went to an IMAX movie, Hubble 3D. It was so cool. The girls were enthralled from the moment they were handed the 3D glasses.
They weren't the only ones reaching out to touch the stars.
The baby liked the movie too. Someone is 2 today! (had to sneak that in:) )
We didn't have much time after the movie (only paid for 3 hours of parking), so we hurried through a couple more exhibits.
Maggie liked the ukelele.
They both liked the huge table and chairs.
They also love to pose.


We met a couple new families here at the house.
One lives near our old home in Graham. They will be here for 6-8 months.
It was so weird to hear someone say that and realize that we will finally have someone here for a later date than us! Sad to be excited, I know.
