March Museums

Earlier in March my Mother and I took Brandon to Philly to the Please Touch Museum 

while kenn stayed home with Lily. 

He had been asking to go, but we were a little concerned he was getting too big.

Even though he is getting to that point he still had a really good time,

and did NOT want to leave. 

He made his own rocket car

 shot of rockets 

(this was new since last time)

 shopped

(you can see he purchased the essentials

(oreos, pretzels, bread, croissant, cake mix, hot dog and cheese)

 Annual picture with the Elephant :)

 Rita's stand with Daddy's Favorite. 

Since I had him all week for spring break i was trying to think up things for us to do.

I have a friend with two daughters who lives in York, PA so we suggested doing something.

So we went up to the Turkey Hill Ice Cream Experience

I was shocked that we spent over 2hrs on one floor!

He talked about it for days!

 the 3 of them watched the movie on how to make icecream at LEAST 3 times

 he learned to identify bad bacteria in milk 

 then got to "shoot" the bad bacteria 

 you also get all the free ice cream and tea samples you want

we also got to make our own ice cream.

you went to one machine to pick the flavors.

Brandon chose, chocolate ice cream with strawberry flavor and strawberry swirl. along with cheese puffs and banana chips.

I "Made" chocolate with peanut butter swirl, sea salt and pecans. 

The next computer you got to design your own ice cream container. 

then lastly you got to create your own commercial.

Brandon was scared at first and made me do one alone (i will not be sharing)

and then he said he would do it but i had to help.

he chose to read it all on his own but i look crazy b/c i am mouthing the words 

next to him in case he needs help...

If you really want to see it email me and i will send it to you 

We then had lunch at Panera and then headed over to Wolfgang's Chocolate Factory

for some Easter candy to load up on to bring home. sooooo good.

The kids passed out on the way home. 

And no i was not driving and taking pictures on my phone.

it was my camera. :P
