Hoedown and Science Museum

The girls have been enjoying the outdoors this fall.  Last weekend we went out to collect fossils near Cherokee Heights.  We even found some volcanic rock and a small cave.  Most of the fossils in the rock were crinoids or corrals.  We also enjoyed a nice picnic lunch by the river.

The previous weekend we had our school Hoedown.  The girls loved the live music, face painting and hunting for their snack of a clementine decorated as a pumpkin.  We also visited the Science Museum when it was raining.  The museum has a new exhibit put on by 3M where kids get to work with wind and water.  They have a car wash as well as tons of tubes where kids can manipulate wind speeds.  The girls loved the ping pong ball part of the exhibit.
