The Magic House!!!

This past weekend we took a trip to St. Louis. It was our last mini-vacation as a family of four! We went to the Magic House for the first time with the kids. Michael and I both went as kids ourselves but that was a long time ago and wow have things changed! I really wish we would have taken more pictures. We stayed there and explored for at least four hours and the kids loved every minute of it. If you haven't been to the Magic House it's definitely worth the money. Megan and Jacob seem the perfect ages for the activities.

Here is Megan making a bubble dome. She made the biggest one while we explored the bubble room!
Ahh, to be inside a bubble!

There was a neat place where Megan caught a fish, went upstream and released it and followed it all the way back to the pond. The place was crowded and this is how she followed her fish...I was amazed she didn't get her hands stepped on! Jacob was busy playing in a car at this time!

Cheese!
Hmm, I wonder what Bob the Builder had for lunch!

Cheese!
The pictures didn't come out very well for this part, but I think this was by far Jacob's favorite part of the whole day! He was very reluctant to move on!

Megan and Jacob playing cars.

Imagine that...Jacob driving again!

Megan dressed up for construction!

Exploring cool air tunnels.

Last but not least, Megan's favorite part...the Beanstalk, she was able to crawl from one level to the next on the beanstalk while we climbed the stairs. The kids both had a spectacular time and we were wore out at the end of the day. There are so many activities I was a little sad we didn't capture more on camera but the memories are there! We can't wait to go back!
We also enjoyed our hotel and indoor pool! Megan overcame her fear of jumping in the water and is definitely looking forward to swimming lessons this summer!
