Our Trip to the Space Center!

We have been studying about the beginning of the Space Race and the Space Program. So we decided to take a little trip down to Huntsville, AL. We left out early Friday morning about 6am

(we are not usually up this early so needless to say we were dragging). It was about a 2.5 hours

drive, Brady got car sick (poor thing), but Hannah was rearing to go. We spent most of the day at the Space Center. There was so much to see and it was a great day. We got this really cool plaque with Neil Armstrong's quote " One small step for a man and One giant leap for mankind".

On the way to our hotel Hannah spotted a place called Cheeburger Cheeburger and she just had to eat supper their. It was really good and we got some souvenir glasses to bring home for the kids. We now know that we could just take our kids to a hotel for the night and they would not complain. They loved being somewhere different and just hanging out. We had to check out everything - work out in the workout room, go to the ice machine, and the little store in the lobby.

On Saturday we went to Sci-Quest a hands on Science Center. It was kinda small but we loved it. There were all kinds of fun things to learn about . After several hours playing and learning we headed home.

It was nice to get home and back to our comfy little house where we could rest up for a busy Sunday at church and spending time as a family.

Here's some more pictures from our trip.......
