Family Museum


Today we went to the Family Museum in Bettendorf, Iowa. It was "Free Day" and that is my favorite price. The kids had a really good time. They love going to the museum. This is obviously a picture of Riley pretending to pump gas and Cheyenne is at the wheel. So gas here is $2.99 / gal. which is down, YEAH!! We made family crest pictures, Riley and Cheyenne each made a Newspaper headlining them as Whale Rescuers, Riley used to crane to load and off load building materials, we played music, and generally ran around. I was tired. So on the way home we saw that Webers Meat was having a cookout, never been there so thought we would give it a try. Ok, I am not one for hotdogs by choice only by necessity. Well Riley and I each had a hotdog, and I can honestly that was the best hotdog I have ever had, Riley agrees. Cheyenne ate chips so she really doesn't care. So tonight we are expecting some storms to roll through. It's about 83 degrees which doesn't sound too bad but the humidity is bad. The winds though are rough enough to blow my children over and is suppose to get worse tonight. We also went to the Library today and I signed the kids up for the summer reading program. i got a special book for bedtime reading, "Dust for Dinner" it is about the "dust bowl" and the great depression, I thought it would be appropriate for the storm tonight.
