Frankenscience

We had a great weekend! A full weekend. I love living in a university town for all that there is to offer (at low cost or free!) Friday evening we all went to the symphony, Saturday we went ice skating and to a fun Halloween party, and Sunday we enjoyed "Frankenscience" hosted by the chemistry department. IT.WAS.PHENOMENAL. All my kids want to be chemistry majors now, and Mr. T - our scientist - has already set up various labs in his bedroom and has been doing science experiments all afternoon! The students were all dressed up, had great hands-on science for the kids to do, told fabulous scary stories and also explained how their "magic" and science happened in an understandable fashion. We will definitely be doing this again each year - I have a feeling it won't be Halloween without it! The kids have brought home slime they made, and ice cream made out of liquid nitrogen is always delish! We had a dinner outing tonight and now to get some rest before Monday.
