day 45 of summer

Day #45:  Monday, July 7

Today for Make a Memory Monday we took a little trip over to the new Prairie Fire Museum.  The whole area is actually a new development that has just sprung up with the museum.  There's new restaurants, a movie theatre, bowling alley, toy store, apartments...it's all so nice and new!   The museum from the outside is super fun with all the different colored glass they used to make it look like a "prairie fire".



We opted just to see the free part of the exhibit today in the museum {there's a discovery room for kids, but I am not sure if it's worth the price since I haven't heard from anyone doing it yet...I am waiting for the coupon/deal to come out for it ;)}.  The free area wasn't big, but the kids did have lots of fun playing with the interactive dinosaur digging!

And of course the main attraction a real T Rex!!!

There were some other cool fossils too!


Then we headed out to the new toy store...just to look!  My kiddos did come away with HUGE Christmas/birthday lists!



Next, we did a little more exploring with our friends around the area and found some comfy chairs and bunnies :).





We wrapped up our fun morning with a lunch out!
