Space Center Houston

We finally took the boys to Space Center Houston a few weeks ago. It's right down the street and we drive by it at least 3 times a week if not more. Matt points out the jets out front every time. We had just never been. One morning we headed over there early and were some of the first people there.

The boys sat down at the simulator to land the shuttle. They look alike even from the back!

Jonathan tried to join in with me & Matt, but his shoe proved more interesting.

Matt was in one of his moods shortly after we got there. I think he was a bit overwhelmed by everything.

Nick and Matt sneaked away and up into a shuttle mock up to see one from the inside.

We went on the tram and were rounding the corner to Rocket Park. Jonathan was distracted by the construction going on around us.

Matt tried to give it his best smile, but was entertained by everything around us.

Inside the training center, all of us were amazed at what we saw.

After that, the tram stopped by Rocket Park.

Matt ran around the base looking around at all he could see.

Inside the building we found an actual rocket. It was amazing to see in person, laying down right in front of us. Incredible!

We had a great visit, and Matt turned it around and was so excited once we got on the tram. I was amazed at how well the boys did. Hopefully next time we can skip the mood and partake in many more activities. More space shuttle related pictures to come.
