Vroom, Vroom!

Detroit isn't called Motor City for nothin'! If you've been living under a rock your entire life, then you wouldn't know that Detroit is the home to all of the major car companies that are American made. One perk to that is we get museums dedicated to them, including Ford & Chrysler. Tiffany, Marc & Colin invited us to check out the Chrysler museum with them one weekend (Ryan was working on the new house) and it gave us a chance to step back in time and see the progression of the automobile.

I was quite impressed with the way the museum was set up. On the main floor and upper floor they have models of old cars with facts and trivia on them, and on the lower level the little ones could sit in the driver/passenger side and pretend to drive. They also had an area where they could make their own car, and then get "feedback" from the board members on whether or not the car was a viable option. It was cute, and Connor and Colin ran around the entire time awing at cars. BOYS!
