How to train a dragon * * * * *

What a great movie! This was actually the first movie that we went with Gwyneth to the theater and a 3D at that. We have been waiting till she is old enough to really enjoy the experience in the theater and for the right movie (I think all the Shrek ones are not really appropriate).

What a great movie! Beautiful, heartwarming, it hit all the right notes for her and for us. And 3D was an added bonus -- we talked about dragon fiery breath, or the soaring of Toothless for days after. Highly recommended!!!

Museum of Science -- Presidents Day *

We haven't really made any plans fro Presidents Day and at the last minute decided to go to Museum of Science. I figured out that if we are their at the opening at 9 am we would beat the crowd and get to enjoy the exhibits.

How wrong I was. We were in the line for parking garage at 9:10 and it was barely moving, and we ended up parking on the third floor as everything else was already taken! Imagine that!

Than we spend an hour and a half running around different exhibits with quite a few other kids and when the crowds got too much -- we left. Never again museum during school vacation.
