Here are the boys trying out some experiments with how things move. Aryk enjoyed the bouncy balls on a string. I couldn't get him to let go.
Aryk loves to go to the store and he and the big boys had fun pretending at the mini-store. Aryk LOVED pushing his own cart around and putting things in it! He also enjoyed taking them out and putting them away. We have to get him his own little grocery cart.
The boys have always been to scared to try the nail bed, until this year... As you can tell, I had never tried it either. I don't think any of us care to lay down on that again! It's not that comfortable, go figure.
We enjoyed the bike with the skeleton. The boys thought it was pretty to cool to see how our bones and joints work while doing activities.
Ashton and AJ were able to pull themselves up using the pulley system hooked to this hammock chair. They are pretty strong! I pulled Aryk, of course. And Ashton was able to sign off a scout activity by learning about and using a pulley!
After we finished at The Discovery Center, we crossed over the river to the park. There were a lot of geese over in a clearing, so we went and sat under the trees, in the shade. I was amazed at how quickly those geese came over to our table! At first it was fun, geese, that close...
Then we pulled our food out of the lunch cooler, and they came even closer! This one actually tried to take Aryk's sandwich out of his hands! I moved the sandwich and swatted the goose away and it just missed pecking Aryk's leg! So... we scared the geese away and finished our lunch, very quickly.
Then moved on to the playground. Aryk LOVES to swing, and Ashton (sometimes AJ) has a lot of fun pushing him. Look at the smiles! YEAH!! It was a fun day, and a great way to finish summer.
