A Night at the Museum

Kevin, Ethan and Ben spent the night at the Carnegie Museum of Natural History in Pittsburgh last weekend.  They were able to tour the museum after hours and play a lot of games with the staff.  The most memorable was a smelling game where Ethan was the only person with a super sensitive sniffer that could recognize 'vanilla'. 

The spent the night under a caribu until 4:00 am when Ethan awoke not feeling well.  He spent some time in the men's bathroom then Kevin packed up and under cloak of darkness sneaked out of the museum with the assistance of a security guard.  Some friends woke up the next morning and couldn't figure out where they had gone.  I was surprised to find them on our doorstep at 7:00 am.

Sounded like a lot of fun though.  Meanwhile Will and stayed home.  I put him to bed at 9:00 pm when he looked at me with his puppy dog eyes and asked, "Can I sleep with you guys?" which I ignored until he cried at 11:00 pm and I caved.  Good times.  Good times.
