Holiday fun...

Whenever we go to Indy, the kids beg to go to the Indianapolis Children's Museum. It is such an awesome place (although I noticed that after a couple hours most parents had a glazed look in their eye...including yours truly). We spent a lot of time in Egypt, because they have a new "Fly to Egypt" exhibit and the boy is into Egypt. I think he would prefer mummies, but it was neat to learn about contemporary Egypt, too:
"Oh, she sailed away on a bright and sunny day, on the back of a croc-o-dile..."

"I have a theory that hieroglyphics are just an ancient comic strip about a character named Sphinxy." (Can you name that movie?)

Wearing Egyptian clothing for a sebou, a ceremony celebrating a new baby.

M3 also tried the climbing wall.

And we all geeked out over the Star Wars paraphernalia they have...real props from the movies!! (Even if they are from the newer movies...ack.)

Oh Children's Museum of Indy...we'll be back!!

What are you talking about? The Phantom Menace is the best movie ever! Especially the part with jar jar binks and the little boy <----such a good actor! Psyche!

BTW, I just watched that movie so I think I am right, but that sounds like When Harry Met Sally - it sounds very Billy Crystal-esque.
