If it's free, it's for me!

This past Friday we decided to head out and enjoy some of the "free" things our city has to offer:) So we headed to the Museum of Natural Science in Raleigh. What a cool museum! The first Friday of every month the museum stays open until 9pm. So we headed out there at about 4pm and when we got there it was like we had the place to ourselves. There was 4 floors of information! Naturally the kids just wanted to run around and look at everything while I was trying to read some stuff but I was out numbered. So we walked around and enjoyed the scenery and hopefully learned some stuff too. Like the fact that Moles have hands that come out of their heads, no arms (weird), that Whales are HUGE! They have wale bones hanging from the ceilings and they are massive. Jonah totally could have fit "In the Belly of the Whale"...


Whale Bones!

This Tyrannosaurus Rex doesn't like sweet little Kelly Bellies:)

Yeah, we need to start taking advantage of the freebies in town. Like the head in T-Rex pic.
