A Night at the American Museum of Natural History

I thought sleeping at a museum was pure made-up Hollywood movie magic, but apparently, it is a real thing available to the public. Mazzy and I got to experience it for ourselves.

For the past six years, my kids have woken me up earlier than I wanted or needed to get up, which I thought was a bad thing. But now I know needing to wake your kids up is way worse.
