Science Museum, Tongo, Mariners

We had another busy (overscheduled?) week with tennis, soccer, swimming, T-ball, etc.  We had a great day at the Pacific Science Center.  Alex and Julia liked the trains, digital bugs, and dinosaurs.

Alex's school hosted a multicultural festival with a Pacific Islands theme on Saturday.  He sang the song Tongo and danced the hula and the "Gangnam Style" dance.

We also had a great time at the Mariner's fan fest.

Everyone is back into a work and school routine after the holidays.  We spent a few days at Suncadia and enjoyed the snow.  Here are Alex and Julia snow tubing:
