Museum of Natural Curiosity  

Posted by Amber in , ,

Monday, Dec. 21st, Michelle graciously gave us a ride to meet up with Devan and Kayla, and Camile and the girls at the Museum of Natural Curiosity. We gave Jason and Camile a Thanksgiving Point membership last year for Christmas, and they can bring guests, who get 50% off admission. Way more economical that way ;) We were all heading to Lehi that night for the Hadfield Christmas party anyway, so why not make the most of our time and go play?

Putting on plays at the Kidopolis Theatre.

I think the raised arm is for a hook...because pirate :)

Camile, Andrew, Kayla, and Devan

We hadn't been since before it officially opened, so we didn't get to see the water area. We ducked in there for a few minutes to see what there was. After playing with a topography map, we headed to Kidopolis. Can I just interject that having more adults than children makes it SO nice!

The girls practicing their veterinary skills.

Making movies

Learning to dance.
Camile: Are you recording us?
Devan: Of course she is.
haha, my family knows me so well :D

The kids had so much fun at all the different shops and things. We still had plenty of time before we needed to head to Brian and Melody's for the Hadfield Christmas party, so we started to head to the jungle. On our way out, I remembered we hadn't hit the music room yet! We played in there while Danica and Camile hung out in the itty-bitty kids' garden.

Figuring out the percussion room.

Andrew was mesmerized by the bubbles on the piano.

Charlie tickling the ivories.

Andrew played the air harp with a little help from Aunt Kayla.

We lost Devan and Michelle.
Nope, they're just playing with the percussion instruments on their own :)

We hung out in the jungle for awhile. This is where multiple childless adults came in super handy. Devan and Michelle ended up taking Charlie and Henlie on the temple run/climb thing that goes up and above the jungle. The babies and the rest of us just hung out wandering around and weighing ourselves in comparison to various animals. :)

Putting food back in the open-air market.

Pretending to be a sloth.
She was so upset when I took a turn.
But hey, I love seeing how long I can be a sloth.
(It was like 4.4 seconds or something haha.)

Rock climbing. She actually did okay, but then decided to come back down, although I'm pretty sure she could have kept going.

Then it was time to head over to Brian and Melody's for the party! Thanks to Michelle for driving us since Matt was working, and thanks to Camile for both suggesting the idea and getting us in for half off! It's always so much fun to hang out with family, and Henlie just loves her Charlie friend :)
