We spent the day after Christmas the Johnson Space Center. My dad has a passion for space, and has wanted to visit the Space Center for a while. The day was filled with tours and movies about space, astronauts and life in outer space. We explored all day and still didn't get a chance to see everything.

Samantha’s favorite thing was playing on huge 4 level kids playground. She said, “It was crazy getting up to the top to the slide because it was so high. It was also fun in the fake rocket ship that we went in.”
