Discovery Center

Summer is flying by so fast and I feel like we have done nothing with our time. For a little fun before time it is really gone, we went to the Discovery Center. Madison is the only one that has gone so we were in for treat. We met our friends the Moellers at Julia Davis Park played and then had lunch before we headed over the Discovery Center. It was nice to just have fun today and not have a to do list for the girls and I. We had such a great time. I can not believe all the cool stuff that they had in there. This exhibit was cool. They had two of these at the either sides of a large room and you could talk in your normal voice and hear the other on the other side. This would be nice to have in the house for when the kids think they can't hear me. This one you had to petal to produce electricity to light up the lights. Between Ashley, Allison and me, I was the only one that was able to light up the lights. I only lit 2 of the 3. It was hard. I had to petal pretty fast. This was pretty cool too. You get the bicycle tire spinning and then sit on the chair. The force of the spinning wheel will make you turn in the chair.

I could go on and on with all the cool exhibits in there. We were there for over 4 hours and I feel like we needed twice as much time. It was a great day. I am so glad that we could spend this day away from our to do lists and have some fun.
