To Pluto and Beyond

It's been a while since I've posted something and even longer since I've posted something really interesting so I thought I'd give you something else to look at.
Jaaromy works downtown now just a little bit East of Temple Square. Well his car broke down on Thursday so he took the bus to work on Friday and the kids and I went to go pick him up. Since it was Friday and we were in fabulous downtown Salt Lake City we decided to go to the Planetarium. We have a membership but haven't been able to take advantage of it as often as we would have liked since most of our summer was spent looking for and buying houses. Since we live so close we were able to just hop on down. It was too late to see any shows(at least ones that the kids would like) we just had fun looking at the exhibits and the boys each got to pick out a toy in the gift shop. It was a lot of fun.


Here's Brigham looking at the pendulum. We were lucky enough to see it knock one of the pegs over. Awesome!


Jonathan already knows all about the phases of the moon, but he still loves to play with the moon phase exhibit.


Brigham was quite taken with the sphere exhibit on the ceiling. I can't remember what it's called, unfortunately.


Here's another one because he's SO CUTE!


Nathaniel is getting some great ideas watching the Newton's Daydream exhibit.


Jonathan loved going from planet to planet finding out how much he would weigh on each.


Just to prove that Brigham is cute no matter what, here he is being cute on Mars!


And finally, a quick trip to the moon to hurry and take a picture before my camera's batteries die. I find it extremely ironic that, given how little time we had to take the picture, my boys were more cooperative than they were for Grandpa Jay when he tried to take our family picture. Maybe we just need to go to the planetarium to have our family picture taken. Hmmm, that gives me an idea!

  1. So Cute, Ang! And I have to agree that the BIZ is pretty cute no matter where he is. Would you believe that I have never taken my kids to the planetarium before? What kind of a mother am I? I am going to take them before the year is over. Thanks for sharing your fun experience.

  2. Those pics are so cute. I like your idea of a picture from there. I think that a christmas card from the moon would be great.

  3. Your boys are growing so big! It is officially unfair that we live so far away!

    Hey, I am still waiting to see pictures of your new house! I bet it is great to be in your first home!

  4. Oh ya, did you know Lyenna has a blog? I have a link to her. I know you have one for her too, but she started a new one. Just thought you would like to have it!
