Last Tuesday, July 17th, we left on our trip down to Tennessee. Rather than driving through the night this year, which tends to be rough on Lee and I, we split the long 13+ hour drive in half and stopped in Indianapolis on the way there. The boys love to swim, so staying in a hotel is a fun place to be. They were able to swim Tuesday night when we arrived and again on Wednesday morning before we headed out to the World's Largest Children's Museum in Indianapolis.
It was such a great Museum and we all had a wonderful time!
Bumble Bee Transformer was right in the entrance lobby when we walked into the museum. Dinosaurs are on the outside of the building and stand as tall as the building. It was amazing!
Here are the boys in front of the Transformer.
Our first stop was the dinosaur exhibit. As you can see from this picture it was a little overwhelming, but completing amazing! A "thunder storm" was also happening at the time we walked in, so that is why Brady's covering his ears. :)
Both Tyler and Brady digging for fossils.
While there, they got to touch a real dinosaur bone, which they didn't really think was all that cool, but Lee and I did!
Just playing with some little dinosaurs.
Next was Lego Land. Lee helped them build cars, which they spent most of their time racing their cars down the track.
Ready, Set, Go -- with the Lego Cars!

They, of course, thought that this guy was pretty cool!
However, the "favorite" from the day was watching a Transformer transform from a car into a person. They were in heaven!
They each got to sit in this race car.
They also spent some time in the Hot Wheels exhibit. It was an extremely chaotic place, so I spent my time trying to not lose my kids rather than taking pictures. But, they did love racing their Hot Wheels and trying out all the tracks!
And last, they took a ride on the carousel with Lee.
Back on the road. Thank goodness for headphones and DVD players in the vehicle!
I am so glad that we decided to go to the Children's Museum.
The kids really enjoyed every thing about it!
