Memorial Day

Brian and I decided to take the kids out on a little excursion for Memorial Day.  Mostly because the three of us (mom and kids) were getting restless from being at home 2 days in a row.  We considered several places...the zoo (I predicted it would be too crowded)...the Orr Family Farm (only open on Saturday)...the Oklahoma Railroad Museum (only open Friday - Sunday, what odd days)...and then we settled on the Science Museum.

We had a good time.  I was less than impressed by the museum and really don't have a huge desire to go back there.  Especially for the price of an adult ticket.  But, Gabriel still seemed to enjoy himself.  Sadly for little Lorelai there wasn't much to partake in except mommy getting to do some face paint on her.  :)

Pardon the dazed expression.  She was sleepy.
 Although the children's area was a big fat bomb Gabriel did enjoy the giant tree house.  With a ridiculously tall slide, and all kinds of fun things up there.  (I would describe more but I was on Lorelai duty down below.)

Learning about pulleys.  Gabriel.  Not Brian.  Pretty sure Brian knows how a pulley works.  At least I hope he does.

 And the hit of the day for Mr. Gabriel.  The fish.  He loves fish.  Have I mentioned that he is now the proud owner of a Beta fish that he gets to feed after he cooperates while brushing his teeth?  Well, he is and he LOVES it.
