Snowflake Bentley

Yesterday we went to the science museum to see an exhibit on "Snowflake Bentley."

It was really great. There were lots of fun snow things to do and they had lots of pictures of snowflakes.

(Yes, Jane does love this dress and wears it all the time, but she does wear other things too, you just can't tell this month.)
Here's some of the highlights:

Snowshoeing with wooden snowshoes
Speed-skating
Snowball catapult
Kate and some snowflake pictures
(Lissa- you can kind of see how long my hair is)
Ice fishing

*FYI- Today it snowed (lightly) all day. They didn't cancel church, but we got at least a foot. Brad is in Heaven with all the shoveling he's been able to do (Bruce helps too.) It's supposed to keep snowing until tomorrow morning, some schools have planned on closing, our 2 Christmas parties tomorrow have been canceled, so we may just have to play all day here in our snow- hooray!

Bonus: Here's a great video of Jane in the Kids Exploration room. They had a table with lots of "plastic poop" so you could match the poop to the animal who makes it. Pretty gross, but fun!
