The Griffith Observatory

After the party, we took the girls up to the observatory.  Granny came with us.  It's neat to take the girls and see how much they appreciate a little more each time as their capacity to learn grows.  I can't wait to take them up when they really understand everything and want to know it all.  Right now they get it some, but some stuff is still over their heads. 

 It was such a beautiful day.

 It was a hot day so we took a break with some juice and ice cream.

   We watched the pendulum go back and forth and knock over the metal when it got close.

Ethan turns two at Travel Town!

For Ethan's second birthday, we all went out to Travel Town in Griffith Park.  The kids had a blast running around and climbing in the trains.  They loved eating snacks from the snack train.

 Our little conductor loved to wave to the train.

 Kristen didn't want her picture taken but loved to wave to the train too.

 Beautiful baby Payton, waiting to ride the train.

 Ethan was so patient while waiting his turn to ride.

He was so anxious.

 Our whole family almost took up the whole train.

 The birthday boy and his mama.

 Silly kiddos.

 Ethan found some tape and thought it went perfect on his face.

 and on his mommy's face.
