Mini Adventures

We've had lots of mini adventures this winter:

We got a little bit of snow one morning before school.  Talk about excitement!  

One weekend the girls and I went to see Aladdin on the West End.  Amazing show!  Genie was the highlight for the girls.

Another weekend we stayed in pajamas all day and the girls channeled their inner Michelangelo.  Haley has a book that gave her the idea, so we tried it out.  Didn't last too long as the floor was very uncomfortable and hard.

School had World Book Day and the girls picked out their favorite characters.  Matilda for Haley and Sophie (from the BFG) for Emily.  I think they definitely fit the part.

London Natural History Museum

In January Zach went back to the States for a few weeks for a course, so the girls and I got to take several girls trips.  Our first was a day trip to the London Natural History Museum.  We spent all day (5 hours to be exact!) exploring the museum.  I'm fairly certain that we didn't even see everything!  It was such a fun day!

We started with the animatronic T-Rex.  He actually moved his head around and roared.  It was pretty real looking and sounding.

 We moved on to bugs, which the girls loved, me not so much (ick).


 Of course we had to see the dinosaurs!
 

Our last stop was the ocean section.  It was incredible!

I had such a fun day out with my girls!
