         Another run to the Museum of Ancient Life. Another batch of rocks returned home. We postponed this trip almost a month ago. The kids got sick at different times and forced us to replan.

         Part of the fun of going to the museum with my friends and our kids is that the children spent time exploring the exhibits. This left time for the adults to catch up and discuss things surrounding our daily lives.

         Afterward, the group went for late lunch at Cafe Rio. I found it funny how the kids all became well-mannered and finished all their food when they were together. I'm not sure if it was because they wanted to appear good to each other or something else.

         I always like to pick up a few things at the gift shop as mementos that we were there.

         From left to right: petrified wood, natural ruby, and obsidian.

         These items gave opportunities for educational moments where we read more into them. The most important thing is that I spent time with my own child. Next up, find fun things to do for spring break.
