Trip to USU

The week before St Patrick's Day, the USU Museum of Anthropology had an exhibit about the holiday. Since Nathan had to work all afternoon, I took the kids.

I wasn’t sure where to park so we ended up walking up the huge hill at the bottom of Old Main. (I did find a better parking lot to park in for the next time!) The museum was small but the kids had fun.

We got to see an Irish Dancing Demonstration during which the instructor taught the kids a few dance steps.

We started a scavenger hunt, but it was too hard for the kids so we moved on to making a treasure box.

They told Blake that you decorate the box and then hide it by your bed the night before St Patrick’s Day. A leprechaun will come during the night and put a surprise in your box and hide it for you to find. Well, after Blake made the box I tried to leave, but Blake started crying. He wanted a surprise for his box. I didn’t have anything to put in his box, so we went back to finish the scavenger hunt so he could get a little piece of candy. It was kind of annoying but he was so happy once he got the mini candy bar to put in his box. Then we could leave.
