Children's Museum

Ryan has Spring Break this week so Colin went off to school and then Grandma and Grandpa took Ryan to the great Children's Museum in downtown Honolulu. It's always great fun!

Ryan the Engineer...

the fireman...

the best Steward I've had in a long time...

cooking up some outstanding Asian food...

and joining us for a marvelous lunch!

When Mom came from her haircut to pick us up, there was Art in the Park in front of the Museum so Ryan got to be creative there too. Some beautiful pictures came home with us! We picked up Colin at school and then headed home for lunch.

They have a great science project going at home. One day at church they saw some Monarch caterpillars on the milkweed so they brought a few home along with some milkweed leaves to feed them and put them in a container and have been watching them grow and change. They have already released three butterflies. Today there was one crysalis and three caterpillars. It will be fun to watch the next week or so.


Since tomorrow is St. Patrick's Day, it was time to make the traditional Leprechaun Trap. The Internet supplied great ideas and the work began.

With rocks painted gold and a trap underneath, we'll see what happens tonight. The rest of the afternoon we just played games and had a fun time together. The green shirts were out and ready for tomorrow.
