A Day At The Dinosaur Museum

We ALL love the Dinosaur Museum! We stumbled across a great opportunity to go and go we did! Hannah, Dallin and Kael are waiting patiently to go through. The kids really liked this contraption since it made little tornadoes. They would blow on it, making the tornado disappear and slowly create another one......fascinating :)

I had to get a pic of Hannah at this spot since the last time we took a similar pic. So, here is Hannah at 6 and 3/4 old.....
....and here at 3 and 3/4.

Kael running through the cave.

We went through with my sister Kim, hubby Brian and his kids. Clixie wanted her pic taken with this dinosaur. It's one of the few Dino's that's about her size.

Another re-creation of an older pic. Dallin is an added feature.

Here is the pic with Barry and Hannah last time.Dallin, Twins and I. (Koen on left)

Kael taking great interest in the dinosaurs.

Who would've thought Dinosaur Museums were romantic?

Goofin' off!

Kael was very focused on building a little Dino-land.

Koen enchanted (or going crazy...you choose) by the Dino's.

In order from oldest to youngest......really.....

Piling on

This Dino's not big enough for everyone.

Koey digging for bones.

Not sure exactly what the situation is in this particular photo. You can speculate all you want....I just think it's funny.

She found one!

Koey sharing

Love these boys' eyes!

What's left of the brushes after numerous hours of digging.

Aidan Turns 7 !

The cake! I was rushed putting it together, especially his face, but at least it's edible!

The birthday boy couldn't be more excited.
Koen and Kael patiently waiting for the ice cream bar to open.

I find this pic kinda funny. We both have the same look....it's like we're related somehow :)

Make a wish!

7 years ago on January 17th I was given the privilege of raising this beautiful 2lb 13 oz baby boy. Ever since my life has been rich with the blessing of motherhood.

Thank you Aidan Frederick Kane....I LOVE YOU!!

Brody and his mom (Kyrsten) waiting for their sweet treats.

It's a Dallin!

Baby Jace attending his first birthday party.

And what party would be complete without Gina

We had a full ice cream bar with just about everything you could want to put on ice cream. Super yummy......

Oooops! Someone caught us sleeping at the party. (inside family joke...sorry)

Uncle Reed, one of the many happy party-goers/photog

My cute little birthday boy!

Hannah-Banana! She's finally growing back her two front teeth she so conveniently lost right before Christmas to which we kept singing the song around her. Looks like no more song singing is in order until her birthday coming up on March 20. Yay, more cake!

Kael enjoying the birthday celebrations. He was equip with a hat and whistle and even thought that some of the presents might be for him as well. Sorry, Kael you still have 6 more months.

Aidan opening his presents with his assistant/sister by his side.

Seeing how we had such a busy week prior to the party, I didn't bother organizing party games and activities. Instead I bought a bunch of Nerf guns and put all the ammo in the center of the room in a bucket and let them run around and go crazy while we sat back and hung out....occasionally getting involved :)
