Las Vegas 2012

Our second trip to BLT Burger and we still love it. The Kobe beef burgers are delicious. We tried a shake this time and we are now fans of Nutella shakes.



We went out for Japanese food at Raku. The staff could not have been nicer and the food was great. And we were the only diners in the place who were not taking photos of our food, I am not kidding.



Micheal takes me only to the best places, Tim Arnold's Pinball Hall of Fame. A very cute not-for-profit museum where you can play pinball for a quarter. If we lived in the area I think it would make a great birthday party location. (picture from their website)



Luv-It Frozen Custard. You can see our trip was centered around food. I was happy that the only decisions I had to make were where my next meal was coming from. A relaxing Vegas vacation.

Nanotechnology

Today we went to the California Science Center for their exhibit on nanotechnology. Jacob learned about ferrofluid, thin films and static electricity. He impressed the students with his knowledge of science. I am glad that those Mad Science classes are paying off.







When I asked Jacob what he liked best about his day at the museum he said the Ecosystems. Oh well so much for nanotechnology. We look forward to seeing the Space Shuttle Endeavour when it makes its permanent home at the California Science Center.

Easter Wrap Up

Origami egg holders.
Jacob received an Easter basket from Aunt Thea. He decided to list everything that he received in his basket and he is checking things off as he eats it. You can see this is a "must do!"
