Science museum! 🌎

This week we went to the North Carolina museum of natural sciences again! Since we went on a Thursday, no one was there and we had the whole museum to ourselves. Even though we have been here a bunch of times, every time we find something new! 
They had a live snapping turtles, frogs and snakes and a bunch of hands on activities and science labs to explore. In one lab we got to use the microscopes and see bugs eating Styrofoam!
In the 3D printing lab, we got to watch them print and play with all the printed toys.
 It's four stories tall with a sky bridge, so there is plenty to explore! 
The admission is free and it's fun for all ages, we will definitely go again! If your ever in Raleigh NC, be sure to check it out, and make sure you have lots of time to do it, we spent 3 to 4 hours there!
Thanks to mom for taking all these pictures!

We got ducks!

This morning, we got a phone call from the post office telling us that our ducks were there and ready to be picked up! We had purchased a special breed of ducks, crested pekins, and the only way to get them was to order them from out of state! It only took 2 days to get here and they came safe and sound!  They were freezing cold when we got them, so we immediately put them in there temporary house. Now they are warm, happy and being adorable!💗 Name the third duck challenge. Alright everyone! We are having a competition! We have two ducks already named, Mrs. Wimpy Dimple and Flippy Floppy. But we need one more name for the third duck! Write your answer in the comments and the winner will be chosen on May 27th! Thanks for reading and I can't wait to see everyone's names!

The aftermath of the storm

The storm wasn't as bad as the weather Channel said, but there was still quite a bit of rain and wind. No tornadoes or thunder. A lot of branches and pinecones fell and some of the pathways were flooded. But no serious damage! Now we have a lot to clean up after the next storm on Friday 😄

Mushrooms 🍄

All throughout our woods. Mushrooms grow everywhere! One they there is nothing on the trail and the next day giant ones are popping up! As dad has been building the pathways he has taken a whole bunch of pictures of them!  This one is called chicken in the woods. It is edible. We harvested some and dried it.  This little yellow one was so small!  This one looks like a shower head, but we don't know the name yet.  Thanks for the pictures dad!
