In awe of the circus

How cute are they???!! They were very enthralled by the circus events! Lance was so into it - it was great!

All smiles! :)

Some crazy performances.....some were quite impressive.

The Circus comes to Wellston!

So back in June the Circus came to Wellston, OH. so we thought, why not!? Both Grace and Lance loved it and were in awe of it the entire time. We went with our friends the Bohlsen's and had a great time, besides the fact that it was 100 degrees inside the tent! I was actually impressed, not knowing quite what to expect before we went. Here are some favorite shots.
Lance is thinking, "Where have you taken me?"


Everyone watching as it starts - Lance, Josh, Grace, Tatum, Paul, and Wade

Yes, we got to ride the elephant! Tatum was too scared to go and would only go if Grace went, so I went with them both. It was quite an interesting experience! I can't say I've ever ridden an elephant before....

More fun at COSI

We had so much fun at COSI! This picture is HILARIOUS!! They had and IMAX movie that we went to and it was 3-D, so we had to wear these glasses. I told Grace to make a funny face and this is what she did - HA! :)

They pulled this levy and lifted a real car off the ground - she thought that was pretty cool.

This was, of course, a dried ice experiment. She was pretty confused by it, but liked it.

She got to go down into a submarine and see how it works!

Grace and Daddy made a pipe to redirect the water into the bowl. I think Daddy enjoyed this more than Grace! :)

COSI

We were in the "50's" part back in time to see how things have changed. Grace was on "T.V." and was the newscaster! She loved it.

Riding her 50's bike

They rode the little rocket ride on the "street"

Daddy is making Grace a shake at the diner in "town".

Visit to the Science Center #1

The first thing we tried at COSI was the water area. The kids had a blast there and we probably could've stayed in that part all day without seeing any other parts of the science center. It was so cute, they had little raincoats for them to wear so they didn't get wet. Lance LOVED sitting up to the table in his little chair - it was perfect for his age!

Wild Hair

So these pictures are from June still! I know I"m WAY behind, but it just takes so long to download. I'm going to try to get this done eventually. We went to the Science Center in downtown Columbus one Sat. in June. It was SOOO much fun and the kids LOVED it! I had to take these first pictures of Lance because this is how he woke up from his nap one day!! I told Grace to run and get the camera so we could take his picture - too funny!! Wild hair man! These are of Lance playing at COSI (the science center).

Wild hair! Literally, he went to bed with completely flat, normal hair and woke up like this. CRAZY!! I don't know what he was doing! It was hilarious!


He's sticking out his tongue at me - with that wild man hair! ;)

Hocking Hills hike #2

Checking things out with Nana
There was a spring where we took their shoes off and they went into the water. We couldn't get Grace out she loved it so much!

Lance, however, hated the water! The closer his feet got, the higher he lifted them!
