we went to the Louisville Science Center and checked it out... three floors of interactive displays... build this bridge, do the weather report, check out how you can recycle things... and then we went to an IMAX movie about the wild ocean - it was pretty good!! now we're sitting in front of the tv watching a family movie and eating pizza...... a pretty good staycation day!!

staycation - more day 1

the zoo has a new high ropes course that we checked out today - it was incredible!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i mean it was sooo much fun - i couldnt even believe it!!! the kids were all soo brave - it was unbelievable how they just went all over this course - the top part was three stories high and some parts all's you had to walk on was a tiny little rope!! and the kids just walked

across it like it was nothing!!! even brynn was all over the place........ although she did get scared at times she still was soo brave!!

staycation - day 1

today was our first day of spring break.. and rather than go on a vacation to somewhere exotic we decided to stay home for our vacation - which is where we got

"stay-cation"!!!

... anyways on day one of our staycation we headed to the zoo!! the weather was absolutely perfect! sunny and warm and just wonderful!! the animals were pretty excited and the theme of the day seemed to be fighting.... because we came across several animals that fought in front of us....

the bongos had their horns locked and the emus must have been two brothers - cause they acted just like daniel and mason - sneaking up on each other, chasing each other around and just generally irritating each other - it was an incredible show!! and then to top it all off a peacock opened up his feathers to show off for us!

after the zoo we headed to tumbleweed for ribs - arden and mason's choice for their favorite staycation meal... the resturant was right on the ohio river, so while we waited for our table we sat by the river and watched a crew team row by... and afterwards we went to the extreme skateboard/biker park and watched for a bit.
