State Fair and COSI with the Wegmans

Relient K - GREAT CONCERT!!!! Imagine a 38 year old mother of 2 jumping up and down and dancing in the aisle... yep. Not afraid to admit it!
This illusionist had the boys going for quite a while with a trick - he'd fix it so Noah could do it very easily but the 3 older boys couldn't. They could NOT figure out how the 4 year old was beating them! It was hilarious!

Ice cream at the dairy barn - nuthin' better!





Fair food: corn dogs (momma had a gyro!)

The giant slide is always a favorite. Ethan was so good with his little brother - helping him carry a sack up the long stairs and making sure he rode with him. Even held his hand in the line! So sweet! (Noah is behind Ethan in this pic)

This was a giant mural that kids could paint. All the boys spent quite a while here having some fun being creative.


All of us outside COSI - as cool as the Science Museum of MN...but farther away :(

Steve is an excellent photographer. Where I was unable to get the entire skeleton when I visited last, he knew just what angle to shoot at. This sculpture is so cool!


The older boys were enjoying the hands-on laser exhibit.

Noah and I discovered the power of pullies.

More machine power...this time levers and counter weights - the boys are lifting a truck. A real truck.

Steve snapped this shot of me doing what I do...checking out the bugs in the native plant area. I like this photo...makes me feel pretty. :)

This machine was a lot of fun - shot balls out the top. Kids were running everywhere catching them and putting them back in the machine.


The ride started out fun, but got a bit taxing by the end. For everyone. :) We survived, though...and learned.
