This isn't the best photo but it'll do. The T-rex looks like it's going after Jeff. After we went to Watts we went to the Natural History Museum. So many neat things to see and to show the boys for the first time. We lost Grandma C and Abigail within the first 10 minutes there. Didn't know she could move so fast. Spent about 10 minutes looking for them before we could begin our tour of the rooms. She's almost as bad as the kids at times! We found her in one of the rooms with all the taxidermied animals...of course...she just loves animals...stuffed and real! The boys enjoyed all of them as well. They really liked the Discovery Center downstairs with all the insects, animal pelts, and dino-dig pit. We were also able to see the "Treasures from the Vault". These are special items that are kept in the vault and only brought out for special viewings in a darkened room to preserve them from deterioration. Some of the items included a Glass Sponge (looks like fiber-optics coming out of a snail shell), Amelia Earhart's flight journal, and 7 foot long elephant tusks. All were really neat to see. We hope to make more trips with Grandma soon. Max told Grandma last night that he wanted her to stay at our house forever and ever. I think my "house cleaning" would be the death of her. At least she knows she's loved!
