Museum Day

Because today was a rainy dreary day, Chris had the great idea of taking the boys to the American Museum of Natural History. I haven't been there in years and honestly forgot about most of the exhibits. So much of it catered to Colin's interests that he was in heaven. We saw the sea creature exhibits, the Asian animals, ate lunch and then went and saw the dinosaurs. He was a little disappointed about missing the African animal exhibit and the horses, but we were running short on time (which really means we were risking huge meltdowns from cranky boys). Regardless, we had a great time.
