Pacific Science Center

Last week on Monday the kids were off school so we called up Uncle Joe and Aunt Adrienne and their kids and decided to go with the whole crew to the Pacific Science Center in Seattle. It was of course crowded, but lots of fun.

Here is Ben in the little toddler area. He loved it there and would have just stayed there all day if we would have let him. You can't tell from the picture but he is actually piloting a helicopter.




Another really fun part was the butterfly exhibit. It was a contained area that had hundreds of live butterflies flying everywhere. Benjamin LOVED it. He was so cute. Everytime a butterfly fly right in front of him he would just laugh and squeal. These butterflies were so used to people they would actually let 1 yr olds get within about 2 inches of them.

After we had been there awhile, the "older" kids, Sarah, Josh, and cousin Laura Walsh met up with us again.

Not the best picture, but proof that I don't only take pictures of Ben ;)

We had a great time in Seattle with you. My kids miss hanging out with Sarah, Josh and Ben. It was a fun and exhausting day.
