Sea Life Aquarium

Last week before the boys took off to scout camp and we head out for vacation we took a trip out to the new Sea Life Aquarium. It has been advertised as this huge aquarium with things you won't see anywhere else in AZ.
It was neat, but not as great as I thought. Plus it was really pricey. Even with the discounts we had. Considering it took us only about an hour to go through it, we were disappointed.
The kids had fun, and I guess that is all the matters.

Science Center

Today we took the kids to the Science Center. We have been there before, and were a little disappointed this time. There was a lot of construction going on so they didn't have as much to see and do.
The kids did have fun and that is why we did it. Their favorite part was the digital technology room. They had so much fun 'morphing' themselves. It was pretty funny. The videos are below.
All the boys did the rock wall, the pulley chairs, and Brandon and Zachary laid on the bed of nails.
They also have a sky bike that Brandon rode.
Here are a few pictures enjoy.

Wildlife World Zoo

Today while Grandma and Grandpa R. are here visiting we went to the Wildlife World Zoo. We had been there before and the kids LOVED it but $$$. They recently opened an aquarium so we decided to hit it again. Of course it was probably the coldest day we have had all year. Take a look at the slide show below for the highlights.
** The picture at the sting-rays I snapped seconds too soon! A sting-ray surfaced and Rachel actually reached out and touched it as it went by.**

My free time this week....

So last weekend I bought the kids a 1,000 piece puzzle!!
They did really good the first day and got the whole border done. Then their interest kind of waned.
So in the evenings after they have gone to bed I have been working on it. Then today I had the whole day with nothing to do and worked on it quite a bit.
With Bob's help we finished it tonight. Yeah Me!!
