The Field Museum of Natural History

On Friday June 26th, we spent the day at the Field Museum in Chicago. I haven't been to this museum since elementary school and it was new to Evan and Alex. (Will suspected that it would be a hit and he was right!)

We had such fun looking at dinosaur bones, the pirate exhibit (no pics allowed), the nature trail - complete with "stuffed animals" -- the elephants, and more. The museum is top notch; I can't wait to return with the kids on our next trip. Here are more pictures (including our arrival in Evanston the night prior, and some pictures from the museum campus on the lake)
