Children's Museum with Luke

Last week, Jasper and I went to the Austin Children's Museum with our friends Luke and Debbie. Debbie and I have been in Bible study together, and Luke - while 3.5yrs old - is really great with Jasper.

Immediately as you walk into the museum, there is a mock city bus. Jasper thought that was awesome! He wanted to play in there a lot. He loved the steering wheel. He and Luke enjoyed running around in there, too. This meant they eventually ran into each other and knocked heads ... but they were fine.





Across the street from the museum is a construction site, and the boys were almost as interested in watching the construction workers, cranes, etc. as they were in the museum exhibit.


Upstairs in a construction house, the boys thought jumping on the raised platform was great! Here are some fun action shots.

During song time, the kids were encouraged to hold hands. Jasper also sat on Debbie's lap - good thing, I don't have one anymore.

And then after singing ... the kids got to play under the parachute ... and there were bubbles! Luke was very nurturing toward Jasper.

This was the first time Jasper had played with an actual train set. He enjoyed it.

Jasper still talks about this trip to the museum. He talks about the bus, Luke, the bobcat and backhoe we saw on the drive and the firetruck that went screaming by as we were leaving. So much fun!
