Feeling left out, Art took them to The Atomic Testing Museum the next day. The kids enjoyed it, especially Maxwell. Their visit was cut short though because Art was called into work. Enjoy the pics!

Museums
It was a weekend of museums for Maxwell and Annabel. The first was the New Discovery Children's Museum. We were invited to a birthday party here before the museum was officially open to the public. My friend's mother-in-law was the project manager for the museum, which was how she was able to have the private party. We were able to go anytime between 10-5 with the party starting at 2:30. So we arrived at 11:30 and we were the only ones there! We had the entire place to ourselves with a full staff ready and on-hand. So the kids got to experience every inch of the museum without any distractions. The employees were eager to show them how everything worked. The party was fun and most people stayed after to enjoy the museum, but we headed home to Gabrielle.

February Fun!
I decided to change the background of the blog to a birthday theme since we will be celebrating so many birthdays in the next few months. I can't believe I turned 37 yesterday! Ugh!! BUT, I had a wonderful weekend, thanks to Art!
On February 8, Art and Annabel attended the Father/Daughter dance at the school. Annabel had the time of her life. The theme of the dance was "A night in Paris with Daddy". Art said the decorations were nicer than when he went to Prom. They had a 15' Eiffel Tower! I think Annabel will be looking forward to next year's dance.
Maxwell had his last basketball game on Saturday and he had a really great season. He had lots of fun with the other boys and 1 girl and they all made a pretty good team. He has gotten so much better just in the past couple months. He started playing tennis again, which will continue on until the end of the school year. As for Annabel's dance, she started learning her recital piece and it is to the song "Under the Sea" (Little Mermaid). She is over the moon about this! Gabrielle and I started going to Rock and Roll Kids this month and she is loving it. But she is kind of a bully. She will take a toy from someone and act like she is going to give it back, but then runs the other way. Last Friday we went and she ripped out a little girls hair bow and would not give it back to the girl! If she was my first child I would have been mortified! Being that she is my third it really didn't bother me.
Maxwell and Annabel had "spirit week" last week and they really enjoyed participating. Valentine's Day was a success as well.
