Oh the Joys of our first family outing!!

This week we finally went on our first family outing... since Gabriel was only 2 months old at the time, there was only a limited amount of places that we could actually go. So the Hall's first family outing was to ... The Bean Museum!! :D Filled with exotic animals from mystic places and a magical Liger!!! We absolutely loved it!!! Gabriel couldn't really understand where he was or what he was doing, but he was absolutely terrified of anything with large teeth or fangs after Chris put him in hippopotamus mouth... no children were harmed in the taking of this picture.
Then we went on a helicopter ride the museum offers... look a train!!! Okay so the were just miniature villages, but we can definitely IMAGINE that we went on a helicopter ride.
AHHHH!!! Bet you wouldn't think stuffed animals could be so ferocious and alive!! Chris actually took this picture and I didn't know about it. When we were on our way back to the car, I was flipping through the photos and came upon this one... I actually screamed, and Chris just laughed :D
Gabriel at this point had decided he had a very long day... and I just didn't know what to do for a pose. I think I'm guarding him from the massive buffalo... yeah.
Anyways, that was are trip!!! Hopefully we'll be going on more exciting ones soon but for now this one was perfect!
