Summer Fun Week 5

Movie Monday
Today we spent most of the morning building with legos and make all sorts of creations.
For a special lunch, we headed to Cinebarre to enjoy Planes 2 and yummy meals. 

Take a Trip Tuesday
First thing this morning, I found Sully playing Wii Just Dance and moving and grooving to NKOTB.  So cute!
The boys and I went to Discovery Place to see their new exhibit, 
Androids and Aliens.  They were excited to see Iron Man and C3PO.
We spent the next several hours doing our favorite things at the museum-
the bed of nails...
meeting new creatures...
and the Air Chair, just to name a few!
In the evening, Gill came home early and we went to 
the Charlotte Motor Speedway for an exciting race.
This giant Monster Schoolbus was waiting for us in the parking lot.
The boys enjoying the races
Kids made signs
Meeting the Motor Speedway mascot, LUGNUT!

Wet and Wild Wednesday
After our late night at the race track, our morning was very low-key.  However, we met up with Drew, Evan and Rebecca in the afternoon for a fun trip to the giant sprayground (and popsicles, of course)

Think About It Thursday
This morning we packed a picnic and went to the Reedy Creek Nature Museum with friends.  We explored the outside play area and the inside Nature Center.
Thanks to the boys' Highlights magazines, we found some great experiments to do at home, and after dinner, we experimented with oil, water and food coloring to try and figure out why they just won't stay mixed.

Friday
Today was a gloomy rainy day, and we decided to stay in.  We rented movies, made brownies and curled up on the couch.  It was a perfect lazy day.
