Lowell Observatory

Since Parker is totally into all things 'space' right now we decided to visit Lowell Observatory while we were at the cabin.

It was a family activity and field trip put together. 

Field trips as a family instead on a bus full of crazy kids?

 Homeschool=Awesome!

Lowell is in Flagstaff and is actually where Pluto was discovered.

First, here's Terra looking so super cute and colorful and warm!

My favorite people in front of the telescope.

And Parker's turn. This telescope was set to view the moon, so we were able to see all the craters up close

We got to see a set of stars through another telescope, and walked through a few exhibits.

Here we are in front of a piece of meteorite that is at Lowell from Meteor Crater

They had a 3D Mars area, so you could look at pictures and maps of Mars in 3D.

My kids are cute anyway, but then with goofy glasses they are irresistible.

Sweet boy, so excited to learn about space

Try and tell me you don't love that face!

My cute Alien baby, Terra!

And then my whole family rocking the super cool 3D glasses.

Overall the kids enjoyed it, especially Parker- he seriously loves learning about space
