Spring Break

Here's a recap of our super-fun local spring break week! :)

Day 1: Monday
Stan, Lisa, & I went to the Oregon Museum of Science and Industry (OMSI). First the kids played in the science playground. Stanley pretended he was a chipmunk, and Lisa played in the sand area.

Then we went to see The Art of the Brick, an art exhibit by the artist Nathan Sawaya. "The world's largest display of LEGO art ever features original pieces of inspiring artworks as well as re-imagined versions of some of the world's most famous art masterpieces made exclusively from LEGO bricks." The kids loved seeing all the amazing creations made from Legos, and at the end they got to create their own.

After lunch, we saw a movie about space in the Planetarium. Then we went for a walk on the waterfront and on the new Tilikum Crossing bridge.

Day 2: Tuesday
Stanley went to his first day of basketball camp, and Lisa went to art camp. Stanley's basketball camp got finished before Lisa's art camp, so Stanley and I went to Washougal Waterfront Park before we had to pick up Lisa. Stanley rode his scooter, and I took a walk.
