We made plans to go to th state fair this year. We missed it last year but the year before we went and Jake loved it. So Josh took last Tuesday off of work so we could go when it wasn't super crowded. We had been watching the weather and it was originally supposed to rain on Monday and there was something like a 10% chance of rain on Tuesday. But as it got closer that number kept going up. Two days before they said it would just be spotty showers that day so we figured we would go and just do inside stuff during the rain. But the day before the weatherman said a solid line of storms would be moving through and it would rain for a good part of the day. Sad face. So we decided that it would be a better idea to head to the Perot Museum instead. We had been wanting to go but just ran out of time this summer.
We took the train down to Dallas and walked a few blocks to the museum. It ended up being really great. It was so interactive and Jake could touch almost everything there which was great. We went through the dinosaurs, space, earth, human body, and how things work exhibits before heading down to the Children's museum. Jake LOVED the children's part. It had so much stuff to play with. A running water table, campground, farmers market, art area, and a play place of Dallas. He spent about an hour and a half playing in there. They also had a baby/toddler area so Owen got to get down and play on the floor for a bit too. We had a really great time there, it's too bad we aren't closer to it. Hopefully we will be able to go again soon!
