Learning about Gems and Fossils

 Jonathan making sand art
 Andrew learning how they shape the stones into jewelry.


Animals

 This one had animals to pet


Maple Weekend

 We went to a different Maple farm this weekend other than the usual 2 we go to.  This is Smith Farms in Hamburg NY


They are boiling it by wood. Lots of work!  They have the new machine too that does reverse osmosis as well.

Beautiful Day

 A few times a week Andrew is getting extra tutoring provided by the school from students from a local college. I pick him up after. I took pictures as this is Andrew's new school that he's adjusting nicely to.

 It also got up to the 50's that day and of course Jonathan had to come out to enjoy it. There was still snow to play in. No coat but snow is cold to touch after awhile so he put on gloves and liked the hat.

More from the Science Museum

 I thought about going to the St Patty's day parade but with the temp only being 17 degrees...forget it. We went to the Science Museum instead

Ice Skating

 Too Bad Jonathan didn't come, he would have enjoyed the bounce house. Andrew and I had fun skating



MMMM Watermelon!


 Jonathan has wanted water melon for days now.... who cares its winter. Melon is great anytime!

Stop at the Broadway Market

 For Slushies!

 Well placed train tables... it was nice to actually get to look at the displays as Jonathan was busy playing with the train tables.

Looking out at the garden in the back of the Museum

Buffalo History Museum

 Although I love to walk through the garden behind this museum and usually do around my birthday when everything is in bloom I have never been in the museum.  I figured why not?
