I am a little behind on the blog, but better late than never. In April, when Melinda and Nick were visiting, we decided to head to the La Brea Tar Pits since we had never been.
The tar pits are right in front of the museum part. Just a big pile of muddy looking water and some plastic animals. The boys liked to watch and wait for it to bubble and "toot". We stared for awhile and then decided to check out the museum part.
It was free to look at the tar pits but it cost money to get into the museum. I should've just stayed outside with Trevin and let him stare at the tooting tar. He had no interest in learning and breezed through the displays in a matter of seconds. Teresa took Ryden around and read everything to him. He seemed way more into it..
Melinda was so sweet to pose for pictures for me since Trevy wouldn't
There was an outdoor area that I took Trevin to. He stared at fish and trees and was then over it..
We decided to end our museum trip but not without getting some cheesy pictures taken first. We followed the directions we were told to do...first up:
"Just smile and look happy"
CHECK
Next:
"Hands in the air like you are stuck in the tar pits"
CHECK..committed to the photo for sure!
Finally:
"Look off into the corner and do your best scared face"
Sorta check? Wrong corner Trevin, not scared enough Teresa.
We let the boys run around outside for awhile and get out some energy
Teresa needed to get out some energy as well
Lots of random statues to climb all over
...and jump off of
...and hug
Trevin found some beads and acted like it was 'Spring Break in Da Housee!!' (did I fail to mention that Trevin picked out his own outfit that day)
It was FREEZING (which wasn't planned for) so we decided to call it a day. We took a few more pictures in front of the LA Art Museum and headed home.
