Mad Scientists

We ended up having a snow day on Friday....yep, you read that right. Spring came, the sun came out, all the snow melted, we went to the park, we played on the swingset and then BAM, a snowstorm that cancelled school. Gotta love South Dakota weather! We pulled out a science kit we had and made crystals and volcanoes and learned how badly red cabbage smells :). We did an underwater volcano which basically just made water fizz up and out of a test tube while changing colors....as seen a little bit in these pictures....

You will see that Harrison was a bit apprehensive of the part where we added citric acid...when it started "erupting" he actually jumped out of his seat and ran to the living room. Pretty funny for the rest of us!
I wasn't scared....
