Wagon rides are what brothers are for…

This picture sums up my second oldest.

He is always stepping and walking on things that were not meant to be stepped on, working, thinking, preferably alone.

They have been watching a lot of a show called “Goldie and Bear” little bit was pretending to be little red riding hood and her big sister was Grandma.

So she kept running up to her sister, yelling “Grandma!” and hugging her.

They tried to make a see saw out of a board but decided it was not very much fun.

They went off in search of something more amusing.

No clue what little bit was doing here…

She was obviously not mad though since this pic was taken right after.

Big brother was getting tired of hauling little sisters up hills.

Their colorful hair is so much fun.

All my kiddos in one frame always makes me smile.

Museum of Osteology ~OKC, OK

This place is really cool and the staff is super friendly.

The Museum of Osteology or if you are like me the Bone Museum(I did not want to fumble the name when I said it out loud) is small but like nothing I have seen before.

They provide scavenger hunts and give a prize out for finishing.

Little bit was sure she was doing exactly what the big kids were doing…

It is oddly fascinating to see all these animals just as skeletons.

The kids were determined to finish their scavenger hunts!

There are two floors to the museum and it is laid out like a box, with displays along the perimeter as well as bigger displays in the middle.

Check out the Skulls Unlimited site to see some cool videos about how they clean the bones.

The even had Mike Rowe do a dirty jobs with them!

I look up if museums have scavenger hunts before we go.

They are such great learning tools.

I like how they made these skeletons come to life.

The snakes still looked menacing.

The museum offers so much to touch.

I wanted a pic of Little bit to show the scale of the elephant.

Of course my other children walked into the shot…

I am not sure how often we will end up going but I am so glad we went at least once!

It was such a unique museum to see!
