Sunday Family Day

It seemed like it had been a while since our family did something fun together.  So today we decided to head to Dubuque to the National Mississippi River Museum and Aquarium.  This is a place that Karsten and I have gone to for many years.  Jackson has been there once but was too little to remember it and Tristan has never been.  We thoroughly enjoy this place, there's so much to see and do. 

Jackson driving the boat, I think he ran into the shore.

Tristan checking out one of the aquariums. 

This is Tristan's "normal" pose, especially when he's getting tired or hungry.  It's always the left thumb in the mouth and the right hand behind his head, he used to play with his hair but that's more difficult now that he got his hair cut.  This picture is on the deck of the big dredge ship William Black, Karsten and Jackson went in while we waited outside.

The museum had a new (at least to us) exhibit called River Works Discovery.  It was really neat!  Jackson and Tristan loved it.  They had little boats and kids can run them thru a river, make it rain, make it flood, etc. 

We had a really great day!
