Creation Museum

 This past weekend a group from our church went to the

Creation Museum in Kentucky.  It was so awesome!

If you haven't gone yet, I would definitely encourage it!

 A big group of us rode down with Uncle John & Aunt Lynn.

We had a lot of fun driving together, staying overnight

in the Hyatt, and going to the museum.  Memorable times! :-)

 Thought you would like this frog especially, Dave! :-)

 See any resemblances? ;-)

 I thought this was very interesting - as was a lot in the museum!

It was especially nice to go through it with Preacher.  I had a lot

of questions and enjoyed getting answers and learning new things!

 Notice the frizzy hair... this was after the fall.

Make your own conclusions.

 

 Lunch stop at Noah's Cafe.

Nothing like eating in the sunshine! :-)

 Getting ready to watch "Men in White" - an interesting

and funny DVD about creation vs. evolution.

 Crazy to think how dinosaurs like these used to roam around!

 Caricatures - see the resemblance?! :-)

 The gardens were very pretty & relaxing.

Loved the water especially!

 These leaves were HUGE!

 

Lydia, Naomi, and Hannah

Aw so cute.. and getting so grown-up!

 

 Rachel made it possible for her Sunday School class to go.

She's such a good Sunday School teacher! :-)

 The John Burtt Family

(well... some of them... those that went at least)

 The Maynard Family

 Naomi & I got to ride a camel!

I can definitely say that this was a first!

Pretty cool - kind of like riding a horse?! :-)

 The Onlookers...

 Petting Zoo Fun!

 I love horses but this is the first time I had ever

seen a Zorse - a horse and zebra mix!

 Zonkey & Zorse

 

A beautiful end to a fun-filled day! :-)

Bowling with the Kiddos!

 This past Friday, I took Julia and Natalie (the girls I nanny)

and went bowling!  We met up with Grandma Byo, Mom, Pab,

and Elena, Elias, and Chloe who were in town for the weekend.

It took a lot longer bowling with kids, but we had a lot of fun! :-)

 Grandma Byo gave us great tips on bowling!

She's an expert!  She informed us that she was

in a tournament of 55,000 women and placed 6th!!

I think I missed that bowling gene, though! ;-)

 Pab loves spending time with the kids & he's so good with them!

 Natalie & Elena - so glad we could all go together!

 Pab helping the kids bowl :-)

 Natalie enjoyed talking to Mom :-)

 And Julia enjoyed being talked to by Grams :-)

 Natalie was such a help feeding her baby sister! :-)

 The kids begged some chips out of the
vending machine from Grams :-)
