Dinosaurs and Tar Pits.

My Aunt Joanie and Uncle Phil treated us to Sunday afternoon of Museums and Lunch. It was a day full or fun and learning for ALL ages.

First Stop...  The Natural History Museum, Dinosaur Exhibit. This exhibit has just opened and is simply  amazing. We were all in awe. The best part for me was watching the J's take it all in.  The twins could read all of the signs and information cards for the first time and Jilly (our scientist) helped them with the larger words. It was very sweet. I also no longer felt like "that CRAZY mom with the twins." The stayed with us, were well behaved, and had no major meltdowns. A far cry from a few years ago.





I love this one of Jo and Uncle Phil.
This is serious business.

Second stop...

Lunch at the Original El Cholo Restaurant in LA. My Auntie Joanie can never get enough of their guacamole. Isn't she the cutest Great Auntie? I think so.

 Third Stop...
La Brea Tar Pits. This was a first for the kiddos, Craig, and Uncle Phil. It is completely fascinating.


Jackson's feet were tired at this point. It's difficult being the "small fry" of the group.


Following the tracks.





Someone got sticky.

Thanks Auntie Joanie and Uncle Phil.
"Who LOVES You?" We do!!!
