Les Mis

Jason and I got to go see Les Miserables for a date.

So here's our date night selfie:

Summer Movie Fun

We only went to a couple of movies for the summer movie fun in 2015, but I got one picture of us in the theater:

And the kids wanted a picture with the monions:

May 2015

So it seems I didn't take many pictures during May 2015, but here's what we have...

Date Night selfie, ice skating

Terra at the park

Aria at Lakeshore Learning store

Jason also went to ComicCon in May and he took a couple pics there:

In Daddy's shoes

A bunch of pictures from Jason's cousin's (Sabra) wedding reception:

Cute littles

Corin grabbed a container of oatmeal and dumped it out on the floor.

I managed to stay calm and I realized that it was already a mes so they might as well have fun with it.

The kids played with the oatmeal on the floor for a while and then helped to sweep it up when they were done,

A beautiful day playing outside:

both of the girls fell asleep during sacrament meeting one week.

We just let them for a while...

Scooping, funneling and pouring with a rice and beads sensory bin

Day 3: Tucson Science Center

For our last day in Tucson we went to the Tucson Science Center, which is part of UofA, before heading home to Surprise.

My favorite people by the moon

Spinning Neptune

Filtering stuff out of the sand

My girls rock climbing:

And the three littles playing with the foam rocks while Parker went into the planetarium:

Then downstairs they have a "mineral museum"

I asked the kids to take a picture with one of their favs:

Then we went one home

The kids enjoyed the trip overall, but Terra very clearly had a favorite part. The free (junk food) breakfast at the hotel

we learned a lot and had some fun together.

Day 2: International Wildlife Museum

after we went to the Air and Space museum, we took a break for lunch and then headed to the International Wildlife Museum right before dinner.

I seriously loved this place.

It was all dead animals, but it was pretty hands on, and it had tons of displays that compared things from one animals to others . 

There was a room full of horns and antlers, and a display about 50 different bird eggs, and something showing eyes of a bunch of different animals so you could see all the different types at once. Such a cool way to compare and contrast.

Corin checkingout some of the Antlers

With an alligator:

Fun to see it (and it's teeth) up close

You can walk under this giraffe to really get a feel for how tall they are:

My beautiful family with a statue outside:

Day 2 Colossal Cave

On our second day in Tucson we visited Colossal Cave.

But first we showered.

Jason wrapped the hand towel around Corin after he got out and I thought it was so cute!

We drove out to Colossal cave and we walked around the grounds nearby for a bit first.

The kids found this cat and wanted to keep it:

Getting ready to go inside

On the inside:

It was cool, the kids liked it for the most part.

Except poor Aria she kept bouncing around and trying to swing from the rails and such. Unfortunately some of the rails were next to huge drop-offs in the cave so we had to keep her "reigned-in" and she did not enjoy that.

And Corin was ready for a nap by the end.

But it was fun to go inside a cave and walk though.

A few months later we learned about animals with the girls and they definitely remembered going through the cave when we talked about animals that lived in caves.
