Well, we decided that we needed to get out of the house. We were all not feeling well and needed some good medicine. I'd goofed up big time with skipping out on church the day I was supposed to teach. The kids were going nuts because church is like the one day they get to hang out with their friends and do fun things outside of the home. So, we decided that after lunch we would go downtown Raleigh to the Natural Science Museum. The plan was to eat lunch, get doped up on some good meds, drive down to the museum and hang out. And so that's just what we did. Even though we were sick, we didn't feel as though we were going threaten the city of Raleigh, and the family really needed this sort of medicine.
Nate and Abigail had a really great time. Micah did, too. Nathaniel was a little reluctant about the dinosaurs, but when we told them there would only be the bones, he eased up a little bit. But only a little bit. By the time we reached the fourth floor, we were all tired, but the kids had really loosened up and were having a great time.
I think our favorite part was the living conservatory. The butterflies were beautiful, but the coolest part was the sloth that lived in the conservatory. He was actually very active for a sloth.
After we left the museum we decided to stop at Taco Bell for some much needed refreshment. Then we hopped over to Burger King for dessert and the indoor playground. By the end of the day everyone was so tired, but very happy. And you know what...I think we all feel better, too.
