Science Museum

I debated about the science museum. I knew I wanted to take the kids, but did I want a membership? As the museum now stands, no, I wouldn't want to have a membership, but come January a new star is coming to town. The Perot Nature and Science Museum. It should be awesome from the building it is housed in to the exhibits displayed. So, I joined the museum. I'll be a charter member for the new museum for as long as I keep my membership active. My boys love science and I think it is appropriate for us to have access to such a cool place.
We got shark hats for joining the museum. I know what you are thinking, 'Why, oh, Why don't I have one of these hats?' Well, you shall just have to be envious of our good fortune and great fashion statement. I personally was thinking, 'why didn't I get circus tickets like the folks did the week before?'
 There was a shark exhibit in town. (Hence the lame hats...) We did get to see a frozen full size tuna next to a shark. That was sweet.
 The science museum's redeeming quality is the children's museum that is housed in house. There were lots of great touchy feely, playing, and exploring areas. One can never be too old to play dress up firemen.

Here Macey had just kissed this duck and was getting ready to take him to the head of the stream for a swim. I'm hoping that the new museum will have a variety of exhibits to teach us all, but also to get the boys thinking about their futures as scientists.
