Pavilion of Wings!!!

We visited the Los Angeles Natural History Museum this weekend to see the Pavilion of Wings. It's a live butterfly exhibit that is running this summer. Last year we went to a similar one in Santa Barbara, which was done much better than this one. Either way the kids had a great time. Lauren wanted so badly for a butterfly to land on her I thought she'd die.....and sadly it never happended. However they seem to love Maddie and come right to her. I must admit the dinosaurs at the LA Natural History Museum were very impressive. I have never seen a real dinosaur skeleton and it was a treat to see two enormous ones ( a Tyrannosaurus Rex and Triceratops ) on display in the entrance. They had tons of the typical "stuffed animals" on display in the giant dioramas. Miss Madison loved all the dioramas and searched out the animals inside. She made us look at every singles one as she couldn't pass any of them up. Maddie had such a great time that when we arrived home she a built her own "mini museum" for the dollhouse people to visit. We will have to make a trip here again!
