SLSC

We celebrated Delaney's fantastic PT conference and Daddy's first non-retail holiday in 16 years by going to the St. Louis Science Center on the day before Thanksgiving.  We got there right when it opened and it wasn't very crowded at all.  Mama and Papa came with us so they could go see the Jerusalem Omnimax while we did the Harry's Bug Adventure exhibit.  We had never been to SLSC before and it was the perfect time to go.  We all had fun goofing around.  Our favorite part was the huge contraption in the main lobby that balls would travel through.  I don't know how to explain it except that it was like the game Mousetrap on steroids.  After playing for a couple of hours we tried to go to the Boathouse for lunch but there was a 45 minute wait.  We went to Crepes, Etc. instead and had a delicious lunch of nutella crepes, quiche, farmer's cheese pancakes with lemon curd and blueberries, and chicken salad.  Yum!

 This captures our girls' personalities perfectly.  Delaney didn't want to get near the viewing hole for the highway underneath and Harper practically laid on it!

 She finally got up the nerve.  

 This is the contraption in the lobby that I was talking about.

 The girls dress up as Terminix exterminators to go find all of the bugs in the exhibit.

 Cutie!

 Harper and I let a millipede crawl on us but Delaney said No Way!
