Dinosaurs!!

Have you guys ever been here? It's the Ancient Life Museum at Thanksgiving Point and it is so cool. On Tuesday Jefferson and I went with my two sisters, my mom, and my two nieces and had a blast. Jefferson loved every minute of it. The gaurd rails on most of the exhibits were just his height so he thought he was cool stuff. He was running around jabbering and laughing and pounding of the glass walls of exhibits and having a grand old time. They have tons of hands on displays so kids can really get in and learn. they even have a place where you can dig for fossils and play in the sand. Also, they had this giant scale and you could stand on it and it would tell which dinosaur your wieght puts you closest to. (I do not care to discuss which dinosaur I came to resemble in the weight category :)

My sister told me that she thinks this museum is one of the largest, if not the largest dinosaur museum in the country. It was truely amazing to see how much life there used to be. Some dinos were so very small, like the sea dragons, and others were completely and utterly huge!

The bonus was that during the month of August they had 2 buck Tuesdays and since Jefferson is under the age of 2 he was free. So, an afternoon of fun was only 2 bucks. Afterwards we went to lunch at Wendy's and since they only had one booster set (rediculous right) Jefferson got to be a big boy and sit in his own chair, except he kept standing up and dancing to the music and wouldn't eat his lunch. He is such a fun kid!!
