COSI

Today my sister took the kids and me to COSI, a children's science museum. She has a family membership that includes the kids, so I only had to pay for myself. We had a great day! The kids enjoyed visiting the traveling dinosaur exhibit and loved the 3D dinosaur movie we saw (I wasn't as big a fan, but it's all about the kids!). I love seeing the kids faces light up when they get to participate in some of the hands on experiences that are offered, and it was just a really fun day. On the way home, we stopped at the local farm market that we often frequented when I was a kid. I DO NOT understand how I can live in such a rural area and yet can't begin to find any kind of farm market that comes even close to matching this one. HT suggested that we pick up some sweet corn for dinner, and it was a great idea! Our dinner consisted of corn-on-the-cob and tater tots...definitely an all out hit with the kids. Tonight my wonderful husband is at a high school football game, but the kids have put in a movie and I'm going to the other room to enjoy some college football and whatever else the evening brings. Today has been a really wonderful end to our summer!
