A Day at the Museum...

...continued from our weekend trip. We spent the night in Hot springs and enjoyed a day together of exploring the mountains and a very coooool museum. The pictures tell the rest of the story.



Enjoying cupcakes ...Mandy's birthday celebration included dinner at a Mexican food place and these cupcakes at the hotel.

The kiddos...exploring the mountain scenery in Hot Springs.



A Day at the Museum... Nolan constructing a tower...is it earthquake proof?

Workers hauling bricks...



Most of the group decided to build this....

While Nate was determined to fix this...an earthquake safe building.

He worked......and worked


...and worked...when he pushed the button,the machine simulated an earthquake... Guess What? ...his building didn't crumble!

Back to the Arch builders...


Here comes all the helpers....

Almost there...

Just a little more adjustment...

Hooray ... Look what we built!!

Nolan...Oh so STRONG!!

Can Garrett really hold up this wall???

Miners Forty-Niners... their favorite exhibit...The big boys found this exciting too...the Faraday cage and Tesla's conical lightning machine...
Making mountains... Mandy was so excited about the museum and all the fun things that she was almost "giddy".



Mia and Levi's favorite exhibit...the boat races

Nate created a windmill...

The nature trail...so peaceful...(even in the rain)
