August 14, 2012

We got to do a lot of fun things with Grandma Jones when she was here visiting. She took us to the Museum of Ancient Life at Thanksgiving Point. It was a lot of fun. The kids were amazed by what they saw. 


The boys are watching some paleontologists.


Candace was convinced these mannequins were real people. 



Exploring some caves.



 The kids enjoyed building this dinosaur. You could put arms and legs and heads and tails on with velcro.




The kids loved playing in this sand and water.





Luke spent most of the time in his stroller.


Seeing how much they weighed in comparison to some dinosaurs. The kids wanted me to get on the scale alone. I refused. 



Luke was really scared of this dinosaur statue for some reason. 







Joshua was most impressed by this shark. In the picture above, they are making faces like sharks.






The kids loved this station where they got to pretend to be REAL paleontologists and dig and brush off dinosaur bones. 






Joshua took this VERY seriously.

That place looks very fun. We're definitely going there when we go back to Utah. Cute kids.
