The BEST part was we got to build our own rocket ship using paper & then we could launch it to see how well it would fly. It was the best! I launched mine over & over & over!

We made another attempt at getting a pictures of all us Grandkids. We moved to another room to check out snakes & a bat cave. We went to a third room that had this ball maze on the wall. It was huge & super cool! There was also a place to race tennis balls to…

Tristan & Marley & I had fun playing with this conveyor belt. I put carrots, peas, & tomatoes on it, then sent it up to be shipped off. It was pretty cool!

We went to the Science Center of Iowa & it was awesome! This was the first room we went in. All ten of us went. We played with a giant vat of bubble mix, watched golf balls go around & around, played in a playhouse, & went fishing!

We were playing on the train. We got two rounds of popsicles & drank tons of water!

Clara, Carlee & Annie & most of the clan (the ones brave enough to stick their heads out the window).

We rode the train on the Boone & Scenic Valley Railroad. This is 7/10 of our crew. It was so HOT, but we had a lot of fun!

Our goal for the day was to stay inside where it was air conditioned. After bowling, we headed to the theater to see Rio 3D. It was awesome!

We decided to go bowling late that morning & everyone came, except Natalie & Pearson. We had a blast. I learned how to throw the ball down the lane instead of Granny style. Caden got some help from Tristan. Marley hung out with Aunt Jo-Jo & enjoyed watching.
