Our Museum Adventure

We decided to take advantage of the 3 for Free on sundays at the museums in downtown Mesa. We just visited Artville in march so I was eager to visit the AZ Museum of Natural History. I had heard wondeful things about this museum. When we got to the museum we realized that a lot of people take advantage of the free sundays so it was packed!!!! Growing up in Southern California where there is a lot of big museums, zoos, theme parks, etc. I am continuously being disappointed by the attractions in AZ, and this museum was just okay. I felt that a lot of the exhibits were plastic and fake, but for the girls they had some cool stuff that kept them entertained.


Here we are standing outside of the museum. The girls were more interested in their snacks than the dinosaur behind us!


This dinosaur was the coolest one in the museum. Brian pretended to feed Madison to the dinosaur and she thought that was hilarious. I was afraid they were going to knock down the exhibit because every time he lifted her up there, I saw the dino shake a little.



I don't think Brian was having much fun! (Might have been because we had just lost makenzie. she wandered out of our sight and we were freaking out trying to find her. She learned her lesson because she stayed attached to us the rest of the trip. )




The girls were watching the big dinosaur exhibit. The noise of the water and the t-rex that kept moving was exciting for them.
