A Birthday Visit to Edventure

 For Maggie's continued birthday celebration, we took the kids back to Edventure Children's Museum where kids get to pretend to live in the adult world and explore their future.  A special addition to the museum this trip gave the kids a chance to experience some winter themed fun without the cold weather.  They all found something to enjoy from the 3 year old to the almost 15 year old.  

Miss Maggie enjoyed seeing Big Eddie for her birthday.  He's pretty cool!

They are ready for some fun!

First, they went to work in the grocery store. 

Cutest Publix employee ever!

Helping scan the groceries. 

And now to do some shopping of her own.  I was quite proud of her healthy choices. 

Just stay out of her way because she might run you over with her cart. 

Now for some pantry items. 

Busy girl now goes to work as a firefighter.  She just wants to do it all...and wear the clothes!

Climbing in the fire truck with the lights on.  Headed to the fire!

It's Maggie's turn to drive!

Grayson made a handsome fireman.

I just love him.  I could see him doing this some day because he is so brave and such a great helper to everyone!

Next, we traveled all the way to Snowville by dog sled.  Mattox was quite the musher. 

He gave Maggie a ride on his sled.  

Maggie wanted to help Mattox drive, but Grayson is content just to ride.  Haha!

These two made it to the South Pole.  Whew, I feel cold! 

Evan would not like the South or North Pole because he hates being cold.  Haha!

The boys enjoyed the snowball shooting game. 

And Maggie had to try too. 

The kids got to try snow tubing without the snow.  We definitely plan to do this one day soon.  

It's Maggie's turn.  I got more video than pictures of this one. 

Miss Maggie wants to be a hockey player. 

She wasn't afraid to go up against big brother. 

A friendly sibling rivalry game. 

Next up, the kids did a special news report.  Brody gave us a riveting weather report.  

He had a special co-anchor, Mattox. 

Evan gave us a special news report about Maggie's birthday and got her to sing a little "Let It Go." 

Miss Maggie moved on to drive a tractor on the farm.  

These two farmhands were too cute. 

Mattox and Maggie work hard in the pizza kitchen. 

Miss Maggie serves big brother lots of yummy food at her diner. 

Grayson prefers working in the tire shop.  

Climbing up to get onto Big Eddie. 

Mattox was going to explore big Eddie's heart. 

Maggie loved the younger kids' play area with a treehouse and slide. 

The boys tried working on a fishing boat. 

Maggie just enjoyed putting on some cool yellow rainboots. 

Mommy and Maggie enjoyed riding on big brothers' boat. 

Maggie got to fly a 747!

She had a really good co-pilot. 

I feel safe with this team flying the plane. 

Mattox goes through pilot training. 

And Brody does too. 

Grayson is already a professional pilot. 

And he has a special flight attendant helper. 

Last, Maggie took a trip to space!  She had an awesome birthday!
