First, on Wednesday, April 16th, Amanda and her 1st grade class, along with Mommy, spent the day at the Delaware Museum of Natural History.The DMNH is always an exciting time for the kids, offering them a glimpse at a wide range of living
and long-dead critters. The girls especially love this... :)
Next, on Wednesday, April 23rd, Abigail and her 3rd grade class, again with Mommy in tow, took a bus trip to historic Philadelphia, PA.Some missed opportunities aside, such as touring Independence Hall, the class got to spend some quality time
with the Liberty Bell, Congress Hall, the Franklin Court Underground Museum, the Betsy Ross House, and even Starbucks(?).
The third and final trip took place the very next day when Alex and his 5th grade class, along with Mommy and Daddy this time, headed to the Sight & Sound Millennium Theater in Strasburg, PA (awesome aerial shot here) to see the play Daniel and the Lion's Den.
If you've never been to Sight & Sound, honestly, you've got to see it to believe it. Their productions are awesome. The stage is 300 feet in length and wraps half-way around the audience, the sets can reach over 40 feet tall, and they make regular use of live animals; horses, camels, dogs, etc. Add to this the fact the shows are very God-honoring.
