Trip To Discovery Place

Recently, we were invited to join some of our best friends for an outing to Discovery Place in uptown Charlotte. Discovery Place is a family-friendly science center. I'd been a few times before, the last time being when I was in college. I had no idea they had such a cute area for little ones!

I love their mission statement: We inspire curious thinkers to discover the wonders of science, technology and nature.

Here are a few photos from our visit. If you live in or around the Charlotte area, I would definitely recommend this for a fun way to spend the day.

They have a huge water table with two baby seats built in that look down over the entire water table. Camille and Gigi had the best time splashing around and getting SOAKED!

I know I will probably get some questions about Camille's dress. My mom made it! I'm sort of sad that it's probably time to stop wearing it -- it's a very fine-wale corduroy, and the rising temperatures just don't make that too comfy nowadays. But I think it's one of my favorite outfits she has ever worn, and I just love that my mom enjoys sewing for her!
