Who Knew!

I know I am like the last one EVER to go to the Thanksgiving Point Dinosaur Museum. I had no idea it would be so amazing! All of you who have been, this post is nothing new. It is basically for my sister and her kids. I can't wait for them to come and visit so they can go with us. Her boys would love it! We were there for 4 hours and 45 minutes today! I know I should have waited until tomorrow for the $2 Tuesday thing, but did you see those lines a few weeks ago? It was so funny to see the kids falling off their chairs in the XanGo Mammoth Screen Theater. We watched Sea Monsters in 3D it was so entertaining. (and very "in your face") I have been kind of putting off going there because of the prices. I did use a coupon today. (Is there another meaning for "Non-Profit Institute") I am actually thinking of getting a pass. We've never been to the children's garden either. So anyway we had a great time. My favorite thing to do is watch my kids see something for the first time. They are my best buddies. We've been trying to fit in a few last fun things before school starts. Now we just have to get Dad to come with us. Hali and Garret excavating some dinosaur bones.
I love their faces in this one!
They loved the erosion table.
This one is pretty blurry, but I loved their expressions. Do you think they are ready to watch Jurassic Park?

I have never been either, but it looks like a blast! Looks like I need to make a trip out there. (i'll bring my nephew so i'm not the creepy lady by herself)

How fun! My friend just moved to Lehi 2 weeks ago and she said they live about 3 miles from Thanksgiving Point. She bought a pass for her kids and they have been there about everyday since they moved there. She said it is awesome! Anyways- she may live close to you???? Her name is Brittany McCall.
Hope all is going good! :)

I still haven't branched out and gone there yet. The prices have been scaring me too and the long lines on Tuesday. I'll have to check it out. Oh, and I'm in the middle of painting my table black. So far just the chairs are done. Have you started yours yet?

Mindi, My sister just moved there. Where did you get your coupon so I can tell her? Is Tuesday's a better deal? I sware there is always so many fun things to do in Utah!

We haven't been - I guess we need too! I am worried Kaleb will get scared :) We can't wait for Kindergarten Monday - I hope Briana & Hali will see each other. Now that it's fall & hopefully things calm down - we need to get these two together to play.

I am glad your experience was different then ours. Brayden just ran through the museum and just wanted to buy something at the gift shop. They do look like they had a blast!!!
