Boonshoft Homeschool Lab

The kids were so excited for 2 reasons today: Chris was coming home this afternoon, and they were going to Boonshoft Children's museum for a homeschool lab! My friend, Kristi Deglow, told me about the labs. They have actually had them since September, but we didn't learn about them until last week. The lab today was on electricity which is what Jason finished studying last week. We were all excited to be out of the house and able to exert some energy. Chris's plane landed as we were heading home. We made it home at 4:15 and he made it home at 4:30! After being home awhile, Chris offered to take us to dinner at Red Robin since he had been gone all week! Yeah- we LOVE Red Robin!

The Honorable Jason Gay

The future veterinarian Rachel Gay (she could have stayed in this section forever)

Jason was brave enough to touch a starfish, but for some reason our brave Rachel backed out

Rachel learning how to create a dam and allowing the water to flow to let the boat through


Jason testing out the water works section

The first section in the new animal part had several birds - we love birds now that we studied them for 2 months!!
