Carnegie Museum Trip



We went to the museum with Grammie M and Granpapa a couple weeks ago. It was a really nice evening. We had a quick dinner here, then walked over to the museum. It was great for the kids. The museum was almost empty so we kind of had the run of the place. I had been hoping to show Caleb the new T-Rex but that area still isn't open yet. The kids still had fun running around and looking at the other dinosaurs though. It had been a while since the grandparents had been to the museum so I think they liked seeing all the changes.

After the dinosaurs, we went up to the animal exhibits (a favorite part to see). Both my dad and I remember coming to the museum as college students to draw from the animals. Caleb loved checking out the animals and was even able to name the Jaguar- I was impressed because I can get the various spotted big cats mixed up sometimes. Sadie seemed to just love running around, carrying bear and climbing on whatever things she could find.

But they did get tired and we made our way back home. The monkeys happily went to bed and we're still hearing Caleb talk about the museum with Grammie M and Grandpapa and the dinosaurs.
