Tara invited us to attend an event in Queen Creek. We had a super time and Elese even pet a ginormous boa constrictor. Of course, I was doing everything possible to not completely freak out.
This is Sunshine. According to her owner, she loves people, especially children. Ha!
A little American pride with some great friends. If you look really close, Elese looks like she might actually crack a smile.

Daddy's Home
Saturday, February 20, 2010
I took Elese, James, Emily (cousins) and Nana to the Arizona Science Center. We intended on heading out to the Wildlife World Zoo but it started to rain. Needless to say, we made a slight detour and had an awesome time despite the rain.
Elese loved playing in the playhouse. She had a really good time running around. We actually had to pry her from the blocks.
Elese walked on this balancing mechanism. Her favorite part was sitting down and pulling off the knobs. She also enjoyed licking this metal pole that was slathered with germs.
Emily, Elese's cousin, laid on a bed of nails. She said that it felt like a massage.
James and Nana played a little game of tug-o-war. James won and Nana was a sore loser. She could not figure out how a scrawny little 12 year old could possibly have beaten her. I finally pointed out the sign that explained why. James was pulling from the top of the beam and Nana was pulling from the middle. It's easier to pull from the top due to the fact that the rope is being pulled on a pivot system. It was pretty funny to watch my mom become so flustered. Sorry Mom!
Nana, James and Emily went behind this screen to catch rocks. Of course, when Elese and I went behind the screen.... nothin'. I guess we're just not the rock catchin' type.
In the same room they had a face morphing screen. It was pretty fun to see the different ways you can morph yourself. Elese was so fascinated with the buttons that she never even got to see her ginormous head.
This exhibit was modeled after the movie Robots. They had all the robots from the movie and some robots from the past like R2D2. The kids got to play with domino's and walk around in robot shoes.
Elese just was fascinated with watching the kids create a dam using water and sand.
Elese loves being held by James.
