Glasses for George and the Field Musuem

We need to start off with the big new.  George was in need of glasses and they finally came in on Friday.  They need to be adjusted already but he looks great.  And he can see!

We learned that Illinois residents get free admission to the Field Museum this month.  So we head to Chicago early this morning and spent the day exploring.  We still had to wait in line.

And then we met Sue.

Stuffed animals are fun for everyone, except me.

Becca and Pat gave Sue a hug.  George refused and then told me he was gonna kill her.

In the discovery section where they can touch whatever they want.  We'll start in the Pueblo.

Fossil dig and dinosaur nest. 

George and I went to check out the forest.

Finally, we go to the dinosaurs!  The kids were very excited.

When Lia saw the stegosaurus she said "Wow!"  Becca like it too.

Becca fits inside a footprint.

Yeah Triceratops.

 We learned lots of cool stuff today but my favorite was the Irish deer.  Look at those antlers!

It was a lot of time in the car but totally worth it.  Everyone had a blast and we had a great talk about the Earth and how it's changed.  We've already made plans to return when its free again.
