Happy Birthday Ginny!!!

Well I may be a few days late on this post, but, well, I don't know...

We took a special trip for Ginny's Birthday to the Coral Ridge Mall in Coralville, up near Iowa City. That morning we awoke to a beautiful frosted world to enjoy.


When we made it to the mall We discovered it was a free day at the Iowa Children's Museum and had a blast. We checked in and we all got to wear a fun sticker to say we had come:

The Kids got to do some neat things like; drive an ambulance:

Climb a rock wall,


Smile pretty(note wearing sticker,)

I even got in on the fun, this was a fun room about gravity, I think,


Layler got to fly in a plane by herself,


Then a hot air balloon ride(with brother,)

Skyler tried to go really high (not really,)

This was a demonstration room of Bernoulli's principal or something,

There was a slide from the control tower,


We moved on to upstairs, took the elevator because we had the stroller,

There was a fun room for little kids(up to 3 or 4 I think),

There is a fun puppet kingdom,

Layla enjoyed the show,


We moved over to the upstairs part of the Airplane exhibit,

Aren't they cute?

This is the above view of the down below,

Skyler making sure that everyone lands safely,

The kids taking a test run on the Wright Brothers plane,

This was a pretty cool construction zone for kids to learn some neat skills,

I have always wanted to do this,


Layla go into the action,


Here is our own Bob the Builder,

The outside of the museum,

We also had a day of firsts, This is Skyler's first ride on an Escalator(well second, we went up first,)

Skyler had fun on the Carousel,

She takes pictures just like Mom,

Aren't they beautiful,

We went to dinner on the way home at a Chinese restaurant in Mt. P that we have come to enjoy, and they had a fun item on the buffet, frog legs, we all tried it... taste like chicken.


p.s. I snuck out the remains in a napkin, the camera was in the car.
