Emily and the Science Center

Robert took Emily to the Science Center for her pre-school date day.  I only have a couple pictures from the day so they must have been busy having fun.  Not sure what they are doing here, some experiment....

 They lunched at Maidrite, it was Em's first time trying a loose-meat. But she loves hamburgers so she thought it wa great. 

Dallas and the Iowa Speedway

Dallas wanted to go to see a real race at a real track with Robert.  Robert thought this was a pretty good idea, so they went to a race this summer.  This turned into Robert having a date with each of the kids before school started to spend some one on one time with each kid.  I don't have all the details on the pictures, but I know they had a nice time.
