Lawrence Hall of Science

Noah's friend had a birthday party at Lawrence Hall of Science.

 Doesn't every party start with climbing on a whale?

 That's Noah!

 The kids got to meet a few animals.

 They had a lot of fun watching the chinchilla run around.

This is what Noah was most looking forward to seeing. The fossils!!

 Ooh, a T-rex head!

 And a Triceratops too!

 This Mastodon was found right here on Mt. Diablo! Noah was excited to hear that years and years ago, mastodons probably walked right on the land where our house is. 

 Uncovering a fossil discovery.

 The big exhibit was of giant bugs. Super fun!

 He had a blast playing outside as well.

 Our growing family with a beautiful view.

 Overlooking the entire Bay Area.

 That's Berkeley and Emeryville in the foreground, the Bay Bridge in the middle, and San Francisco out on the horizon.

 Enjoying the mirrors.

 Fort building.

 The finished product!

Just crawling through some DNA on the way back to the car.

It's a Car!

While waiting for a friend to join us, Noah got creative and drew a car in the dirt.

Fun in the car--Raspberry Fingers!!
