Lego Exhibit Fun

My mom and I took the kids to the Arizona Science Center this morning to check out the Lego exhibit. Such fun! It wasn't as big or polished as I thought it would be (the Lego exhibit, not the Center), and there was no Lego merchandise in the gift shop (booo!), but the kids enjoyed themselves. We had such fun that we bought a one year family membership. So we'll spending lots of time there this summer, I hope. The facility seemed very wheelchair and stroller friendly, too. If anyone cares to meet there one day this summer, let me know and we'll arrange it! (not on Mon, Wed, or Fri, though.)

Our June has been so mild that we've only had a handful of days 100 degrees or hotter. Our neighbors' swimming pool is still cold! It's tolerable in the day when the sun is out, but we tried to swim last night in the shade of a barely-setting sun and we only lasted 20 minutes. Such a shame. We finally got our second head float, but haven't had the chance to use it yet. I'd really love a heated pool in my backyard, in case any wealthy philanthropists are reading.

Then later at home, we threw the wee ones into the baby pool for some cheap and easy water fun, while Chris grilled up burgers and made tater tots and sliced up watermelon, then we played the Wii. Burgers, watermelon, and Nintendo? You can't get more American than that!

And finally some video of Kyle, the hamburger eater-slash-chair dancer:
