Amber and Trevor's Visit-- Day 2

Wednesday morning was Early Intervention day at the Discovery Center, so Amber and Trevor came with us.  We spent a longer time than usual in the space and robot exhibits, which I thought was nice because it was a change.




But when we got to the motion/ energy part there were a lot of new things.  I'm not sure what the point of all the arcade games were, but Micah especially was excited to play "drive a car."



Luke is pretending this is a hand dryer.


I think this magnetic toy was Luke's favorite of the day.  He played with this for a very long time!
(It was my favorite too.)


Or actually, maybe I liked these glasses the best.




We left about 11 to get Luke ready for school-- extra spiffy because it was picture day.  And after school we packed in more fun.  We took Amber and Trevor on a tour of Lowe's (It's a visiting Luke tradition), and then we raced home for dinner.  And then back out to visit the pumpkin patch.  It was a lot more entertaining than Pumpkinville where we went in VA.   There was a big corn maze, several slides and climbing equipment, zip lines, a Big Blob (Is that what it's called?), a petting zoo, hay ride, corn cannons, and of course the patch.

Luke was scared of the "bumps."



Going down a slide with D--
OVER AND OVER.


We had so much fun with Amber and Trevor!
We just wish they could have stayed longer--
like PERMANENTLY.
