The Wells Fargo Museum

On our last day in the city of Phoenix we visited the Wells Fargo Museum! I can highly recommend this stop! It was free which made it even better, but it was really interesting and educational. There was enough hands on things to keep the kids entertained. The best part about it was Nate was able to come with us because he had finished his course!

 The stage coaches were very fascinating! We couldn't image traveling on one across the country!
 
We climbed aboard this replica stagecoach which showed a movie and bounced along. It actually made you feel like it was moving and traveling!

You could also drive the stagecoach. They showed movies on how this was done and you could practice with the reins!

 Carder's favorite thing at the museum was riding the little miniature stagecoach! It bounced up and down and he thought it was so funny! 
 
Caleb thought it looked like fun so he tried it out too and loved it! 

 
 Mara was probably too big but she wanted to ride it also! Fun times for everyone!
 
 Inside the museum we found a box that had 'Nate's' name on it! We thought he should be able to claim his prize!

We watched an old-time movie about the bank! 

 
There is just something precious about a sleeping little boy! He always brings that arm up when he is ready for a nap! He slept all the way to the restaurant and most of dinner! I guess we played too hard and he was just too tired!
