MLK Day

Today, all 3 boys and I headed to the L&S Museum of Durham since there was no school.  Unfortunately for Maverick this meant missing his gymnastics class.  He had enough fun to make up for it though.  Thank goodness members get in early, because with no school, there was quite the crowd today.  Luckily we were able to stay one step ahead of the crowds by getting there at 9 a.m. when they open for members, and playing inside first giving it some time to warm up before heading outdoors.  
Here's Maverick "riding" a horse (which is why it's probably blurry) inside at one of the play areas.


We then headed outside and saw the barnyard animals and the butterfly house before stopping for lunch.  Luckily we were one step ahead of the crowds here too.


Our last stop before heading home was the dinosaur trail.  Always a favorite!  The boys walked around all the dinosaurs before stopping at the dig site.  We were easily there 45 minutes and could have stayed longer.  Chandler was so proud of himself when he found a shark's tooth.  Maverick (unknowingly) found one too.  What a fun day!
