There's a First Time for Everything.

And there's a last time for Everything.

This will be our last time attending the Tyrell Museum on Family Day. We were told by friends that it is has never been busy when they go out to check it out on long weekends. My guess is that they have never visited on the Family Day Long Weekend, when everyone is FREE!

Well, it was so busy that people parked on the side of the highway all the way into the drive into Tyrell. We arrived when the first group of attendees was starting to leave. I was able to snag a spot to park. It would have been a shame to travel all this way just to turn around and drive home again. The museum was busy - but not Christmas shopping crazy.

We met up with friends when we got there. I'm not sure this was better...as I took all 6 kids by myself and they broke away with their friends. For the majority of the time I was trying to catch up to the kids...except for Chase. I was glad he was with me. That meant I was successful in keeping track of 1/6th of them.

 Quinten and Colby are at the top of this tunnel.

 

 Chase loves the water bubbles.

 Will will likely never make it to the height of a dinosaur.

 ....and neither will the others.

 Happy Boys.

 Good times with friends.

 Alright kids. You are smarter than the average man. How many kids can pile onto the weigh scale? And once they do, the equivenlant of their weight is equal to a Lion....I think.

 At the end of the day, all the big boys were tired and kicked the little kids out of the wagon so they could get a ride. City kids are so soft.
