Discovery Gateway

WARNING: This could possibly be the MOST pictures ever posted to a single blog post in the history of blogging... but seriously, have you BEEN to Discovery Gateway? It's, like, totally seriously so super fun!!! We got a free family pass that had to be used by December 31st. So, what did we do? We went on December 31st! We only had a couple hours, because we had parties to attend, (of course!) but the time we had was SO. MUCH. FUN!!! (the pictures are somehow in reverse order of what I wanted them to be... it's too late, I'm tired and want to go to bed... so, you'll just have to scroll through them ALL to see all the fun and cuteness of my kiddos!)

Typical Mahlia makes friends WHEREVER she goes! She made a friend making towers! I had to intercede when they wanted to put the stool on top of the bench to keep the tower growing!

So showed off her thinking skills by grabbing any bench or stool she could find to keep adding to her tower.

Joseph was showing off his math/engineering skills! I think he would have done this all night had we not interrupted him to go to the next level of the museum. It was a system of wheels. So, you turn one and they all slowly start turning... it was really cool and he loved it!

John LOVES this kind of stuff.... building, creating and being with his favorite people!

It brought out the best in my kids. They worked so well together!

They had a cute little market where you could get your groceries then take them to the cash register. Very fun!

Another one of Joseph's favorites! He LOVES climbing!

Jackson loved riding the pony! I think he loved it so much because it was FAKE! Ü

Mahlia planting her garden.

What's not to love about playing in the water in DECEMBER?

Mahlia, home from the market and stocking the fridge! She could play Mommy all day long! (well, actually, she already does! Just ask Jackson!!!!)
