The Science Museum

Last Friday we went to the Ft. Worth Science Museum. We were going to go on Aidan's birthday, but Gresham was sick, so we had a free day last week and decided to go! It was a good thing, too, because in mid-September the museum will be leveled and they are building a new one, which will take 2 years.

These pictures are from the Cowgirl Hall of Fame Museum which is temporarily housing some of the Science museum stuff.

Aidan was delighted to find this room of cowboy stuff to play with, and we had the room to ourselves!



They had a whole row of boots to try on - in all different sizes!



I let Gresham get out and crawl around - this is his excited face!



Here is Gresham cooking at the play fire.



And Aidan by the Chuck Wagon.



We have been looking all over the place for cowboy boots for Aidan, and we finally found some at Academy last night! They are actually rubber rain boots that look like cowboy boots, but the price was right. We had looked everywhere - Target, Wal-Mart, etc, etc but I guess the only place you can buy cowboy boots is real Western stores ($$$$$...) We did see several options in GIRL cowboy boots at Target, however. Why is it that most stores have 637 girl choices and 3 boy styles??? Oh well, that's another blog entry for another day...
