Peoria FUN.... Spirit of Peoria and Children's Museum

All enjoyed a ride on the SPIRIT of PEORIA paddle wheel boat on the Illinois river:

 Peoria, Illlinois
 Jonas and Jordyn...
Jesse, Jared, Jolene, Johanna & Jordyn.....
A picture of the entire family that visited, except for Mark, who had to work that day...

Next we enjoyed the children's museum in Peoria.... Ben posed for me:
 Jared did a 3-sided view of his head...
Here Jonas and Nathan enjoyed the water works... Someone walking by said Nathan would be a great 'plumber'....

Artwork of Ben Franklin in the Ripley's Believe it or Not display in the museum, totally constructed out of typewriter keys:
Replica of the tallest man in history 'Robert Wadlow' (8 foot 11 inches) intrigued the children...
All the Riley grandchildren in the GIANT chair.... you know, it's hard to take a good picture of all ELEVEN children at one time....  lol
Johanna was proud of the structure she built:
Jared built this arch & posed with his Mom BEFORE the arch fell....
Then back to the Plattner's home for a PIZZA PARTY!!!!
