Spring Break

Caden and Cole had Spring Break back in March. Curt did not have the week off, so we mostly stuck around home and enjoyed the beautiful warm weather. We were lucky that he was not scheduled to work on the Monday of break, so we spent the day in St. Louis. Unfortunately, I forgot the camera, but I snapped a few photos with my phone.

We started our day at the Science Center. The boys had a lot of fun in the Discovery Room. 
No surprise here--Kieran playing a ball game

Cole & Kieran had fun in the teepee.

Kieran moved from the balls to the racecars.

Caden was thrilled that the computer had the human body game on it. He played this game weekly at the library when we lived in Indianapolis. With some help from dad, he happily completed the skeleton!

After exploring most of what the Science Center has to offer, we took our first trip up in The Arch. It was even a first for Curt and myself. Caden and Cole were so excited!

Caden could not wait to get to the top!

Checking out the view
The boys had fun going up and down in the tram. They were hoping it would seem like a rollercoaster on the way down, but THANKFULLY it was a slow and smooth ride both ways. They were amazed at being so high. I was not so sure about the slight sway you could feel from the wind, but the boys thought it was cool. Before heading back to Springfield, we enjoyed a delicious meal at The Old Spaghetti Factory. So glad Curt had the day off! It was such a fun day!
