Paleontologists

 If we lived during the Ice Age and saw a giant beaver, this is how small we would be.
 And if we were Paleontologists, we'd dig with paint brushes.
We took our last outing of the summer this week.  We went back to the city of St. Joseph because their Heritage Museum had an Ice Age mammal exhibit and since the girls are very into the Ice Age movies, this exhibit was a HUGE hit.   The above digging box was filled with rice and there were various fossils buried and they quite literally dove into the job of uncovering them.

Next week will be their last visit for the summer and they're bringing friends for a big beach day. We've crossed just about everything off our to-do list for the summer and declared it a success.
