On the way home, our van hit 250,000 miles!!

We checked out the Carnegie Science Center, too!

Jason liked going in the real submarine parked in the river.

And he LOVED the Lionel model train display.

This is a picture of the bottom level of a double decker bridge.  See the upcoming signs directing you where to go?  This is why driving in downtown Pittsburgh drives me nuts!

For our trip to Pittsburgh, I create a car pulley system to pass things to the back of the van for Jason!

Jason wanted to see how water vapor on clouds condense and form rain, and how salt water oceans rain down fresh water.

Then it's off to Arabic class!

The kids love their teacher, Tim!

The kids had their first summer dance classes.  

Here's Sophie getting ready for her first dance class ever!

She loved ballet and tap.
