NASA had an open house that Jeff really wanted to go to however he ended up having to stay home and grade tests. :( But that was no reason for the kids and I not to go. We met Kathryn, Matt and the girls in the parking lot and I was so glad we did since Matt was able to lead us around the campus w/o getting us lost. :) It was a ton of fun and I even got to see a real rock from the moon!!! Of course they told me I could touch it but it was behind two layers of glass (a little disappointing). The kids had fun and there was a ton of stuff for them to do. (Sorry some of the pictures are out of order.)

| Posing with an astronaut! |
 |
| Mr. Matt was explaining something to Nate about the suit. |
 |
| We got to hear the 1st women in space talk however the kids were more interested in snacks and running around. |
 |
| Sam liked getting into our stroller...she loves it 'cause it's orange. :) |
 |
| The kids got to make slime...a big hit! |
 |
| Lisa showing her's off. |
 |
| Cute little girls and cute pregnant Momma. ;) |
 |
| We got to drive robots!! A big hit with Nate (and with me) |
 |
| Nate made his own rocket but was too afraid to jump on the pop bottle to launch it. I got the honors. |
 |
| but he loved it and got to run and pick it up again. |
 |
| The kids got some energy out while waiting for the food. |
 |
| Two little cuties! |
 |
| The one picture of them all listening intently to the astronaut. |
 |
| The kids also folded with little twirly things. Also a big hit. |
 |
| Learning about electricity and currents. |
 |
| Again driving the robots. |
 |
| Hoping our basketball would make it into the hoop. Some the stuff they had were summer projects for high school students. I think this was something they made to shoot hoops. Nate enjoyed it. |
