Discovery Gateway

I thought it would be fun to have a last blast with Tyler and his friends before they start school on Tuesday, so we took Front Runner down to the Discovery Gateway, it was tons of fun. We went with Tami, Xander & Claire, Shauna, Sam & Charlie.
Here's Tyler, Xander and Sam waiting for the Front Runner
The Front Runner

When you first get inside the Discover Gateway they have a section with a ton of tubes that the kids get to put colored plastic balls in, and they either go down these tubes or up the tubes with the help of air, this was a hugh hit, the boys all loved it.


They also have a section with water, you get some small balls to float down the little streams, very cute, and they have an electric hand dryer, that was just as fun.

Tyler pushing some of the balls down the streams, tubes whatever they call them.

We went into the "grocery store" and Tyler did alot of shopping, he's picking out the bread he would like for his sandwich he is going to make, normally he only likes peanut butter and jelly or honey, today he got turkey, tomatoes, and lettuce, what a shock, he never eats any of that.

You also get to be your own checker when your finished shopping, he loved this and was really good at the register.

And yet again, something he would never eat, Fish, but he thought it was cool.

He looked so cute driving this little police car.

Here we are at the end of the day waiting for the Front Runner to come home. These 3 are so funny together, they do and say things that as the mom of 3 older girls have never herd or seen before. (one of which I got a picture of but will not post, I will save it to use against them later in life, hehe), I am so thankful to have such good friends for myself and my kids, we laughed a ton and had a great time.
