A couple of weeks ago we took the kids to the Planetarium to see Under the Sea in 3D. We hoped Mason would sit through it since it was only 40 minutes. Since he has loved popcorn lately, we hooked him up with a "Little Dipper" combo and headed in for the movie.
At first Mason loved the glasses and was interested in the show. Then he was surprised by a couple of fish that quickly snatched their food in 3D. He freaked out and took the glasses off. He put them slightly over one eye for a while, but then ditched them for the rest of the movie. He still kind of watched the blurry images--in between watching me stand in the back with Tristyn and climbing on the chair. At one point he lost his balance and fell backwards, hitting his head on the concrete floor. He had a nice goose egg and cut. Luckily, he didn't cry for long (I'm sure the family sitting next to us was tired of us by then).

Tristyn was tired, but was pretty good during the movie. She liked to watch it and wanted to eat our glasses. Melissa came a long because she had been wanting to take Mason to the fountains at Gateway forever.
The kids loved this contraption that sent balls through tubes and a lot wires throughout the building.
Here we are waiting for the fountains to turn on. We needed to take off so Dan could go to the gun show, so we didn't hang around long. we'll have to go back down when it's a bit warmer!
We had a lot of fun. I wish that Mason would have paid more attention to the movie and worn the glasses the whole time, but I'm sure he would have freaked out more when the sharks swam out in the crowd and when the sea lions kissed us! That was cool!
