Happy Birhtday, Finn!!

I can't think of a better way to celebrate Finn's birthday than to join him, his family and friends at the Planetarium! I don't know if I had ever been there before - possibly on a field trip in school, but I can't remember.
After Reagan learned all about space in school she was very excited to be exploring the Planetarium.
They have a great kids exploration area and the girls couldn't get enough of it. They were able to put on astronaut clothes, so how astronauts sleep standing up, walk through a very black room - resembling space, and use a computer to launch a rocket.
One of the coolest things was they had rovers on a platform and the kids (or parents) could control them from a computer and the other kids could go under the platform and stick their heads through domes - very fun!
We were able to see the Big Bird show 'Big Sky'. It was fun and very comfortable seats!
We had lunch together and enjoyed delicious chocolate cake! It was such a beautiful day to be in the city - and such fun to celebrate as Finn turned 3!
