I'm feelin' hot hot hot!

It's 97 degrees and only 3:00 right now. I know, some of you in hotter climates are thinking that probably sounds pretty nice. It's not. To stay out of the heat we headed to the Children's Museum with our friends, Carolyn, Isaiah and Ava. It is such a fun kid's haven. For those of you who haven't been there, you need to go.

Carter loved the mini stage where you got to dress up, play with the sounds and lights, and be on tv:
The dressing room was a face painting studio. Carter thought it was great that Mom was okay with him drawing on his face. Not sure what we are teaching him here, but he thought it was great at any rate and made us all happy all morning:There are a ton of different nooks and crannies to this museum. There was a clay studio, a construction zone, a doctor's office, a dig pit, everything with hands on and plenty of bells and whistles. Here they are driving the bus. There was an actual bus stop and tables with tons of wood tracks and trains. We spent the majority of the time in the "store." It was set up just like a real store with food for sale and conveyor belts and check out stands. The kid sized carts were a huge hit. Anyways, there was a ton of stuff and we had a great time out of the heat. We finished with lunch at the little picnic tables and headed home for naps.

Looks like a great place to get out of the heat. Your kiddies look like they had a fun time. We definitely need to try it out, I'm sure Gray would love it.

I agree with the hot hot hot....it is after 10pm and we are still sweating!

I'm feelin ya! It's like too hot to even get in the car and drive any where in Clovis. The seatbelts could make some scars. But I'm glad you had a great place to go!
