Play dough Fun!

 Hannah made a beautiful sunset out of play dough

Ellie had a great time playing with all of the cookie cutters.  She loves pulling them out and putting them back in the container.

Mythbusters: Behind the Myths Tour

For Christmas I got Brent tickets to the Mythbusters: Behind the Myths Tour.  It was a fabulous date night!  First we went to PF Changs for dinner and then headed over to the show.  They did some different experiments using audience participation so you didn't know what was going to happen because of people's different strengths, sizes, etc.  They used a slow-motion camera, used a binocular head set to confuse people as they had tasks to do around the stage, showed video from behind the scenes at the studio, they used a Gatling gun to shoot paint balls at a guy in full body armor, they had some people interlace two phone books and then Adam was lifted off of the stage by it.  One of the most amusing things was people watching.  The audience was full of interesting folks.  We even had a guy sitting behind us who was dressed as The Hyneman!  Adam and Jamie also took turns doing a question and answer session with the audience.  It was fun to hear what they had to say.

 The nerd-o-meter was off the charts tonight!  Check the "The Hyneman" sitting behind us!
Adam and Jamie gave the audience this photo op.  They had this guy "tie them up" and then let the audience take pictures of it.

The Mythbusters trick the audience!
