tumbling and science center

Another tumbling meet brought us west towards our cousins and a really fun science center!
We were so happy to have an excuse to get too see our family!
These three were cracking me up, checking out the exhibit.
The kids had a blast with the dinosaur interactive exhibit
They saw themselves on the screen and the dinosaur was running around by them!
Then all of a sudden it got super close and roared at them!  So funny- and it totally freaked them out the first time!
Little scientist
One of their favorite rooms is where you make your own paper airplane and then see how far it flies!
Kerigan wanted Daddy to help her make an airplane
What is it about playing in water?  It's just so fun!
Andrew loves making Lego cars and racing them down the ramp!
This was so cute- there's this contraption where you have to protect an "egg" from breaking and send it up a ramp.  Then when it drops the screen has a picture of the egg either broken, or saying you were successful.  Kerigan was determined to get it to say good job!
After several failed attempts, she recruited her real scientist aunt to help her!  Aunt Rachel is so smart!  Ha!
As you can see, she finally did it!  #goals #misscompetitive
They loved the green screen!  Whatever part they covered up with the green cloth didn't show up on the screen so they were making themselves have floating heads, etc.
A blast in the ball room!
And they made giant bubbles!

This was so much fun!
Andrew's face!
Inside a cave!
We love visiting the Science Center and being with cousins is icing on the cake!
That night we went back to Aunt Rachel and Uncle Jay's house and played games and spent the night.  Telestrations quickly became everyone's favorite.
I mean, who doesn't love a game where you laugh until you cry??  Ha!
The next day, we headed to the tumbling meet and look who we ran into!
Sweet Piper is tumbling now and we miss this family so much.  We love running into them at meets!  Piper is wearing Kerigan's old leotard in this picture and I just love it so much!
This was Kerigan's preschool teacher and her daughter.  She always bought all of Kerigan's old clothes.  We love Mrs. Ricken!  Love running into them too!
More friends from our old town!  Sweet Avery was Kerigan's good buddy and we miss her family too!
Andrew loved seeing Avery's brother Eli, one his old best buds from 1st and 2nd grade!
Kerigan and Rylee got to watch their buddy Lola compete and get her awards before they had to compete.  Would you believe these three are all 6?!  #truth
Concentrating very hard before they compete.  Ha ha.
Kerigan got 1st place and Rylee got 2nd.  Two excited friends rocking the podium!
She is our star!
She loved nothing more than her big cousin Evelyn coming to watch her compete!
Her fan club!  One lucky girl!  We are all so proud of her!
Afterwards we stopped for lunch at a favorite spot!
Then we headed to Ga Ga and Papa's and they took us to their neighbor's house who had just gotten a new puppy!  Look how adorable!
This was soooo cute- the kids loved the game Telestrations so much they made their own game!
I had to take pictures because I couldn't save it all.. but let's just say this game got added to their Easter basket wish!
It was another successful and fun weekend in the books!
