Jurassic Quest

After church today, we headed to the fairgrounds for Jurassic Quest to see dinosaurs and play.
The boys are especially into dinosaurs right now ~ we read The Berenstain Bears Dinosaur Dig A LOT!  All three kiddos enjoyed seeing the life size dinosaurs but Lukey was by far the most entertaining as he was terrified yet drawn to the T-Rex.  Having to be held because the T-Rex was "roaring at him" but refusing to go anywhere else and eventually roaring back ~ so cute and funny!

The big kids LOVED the dinosaur bounce house slides and obstacle courses, while Lukey preferred to stay right at the entrance and bounce just a bit ~ he was a bit overwhelmed by all the people.

Again, the big kids LOVED the dinosaur dig and spent a good half hour finding dinosaur bones.
 It was so cute to see them work together.  Lukey wanted to go back to see the T-Rex :-)
He came back in time to see Alli and Eli ride the dinosaurs, which they loved!
All three wanted to go to the gift shop and picked out a fun new toy.
Since we told them that was coming out of their piggy banks, it was cute to see how discerning Alli was :-)
Lukey picked a tube of dinosaurs that he and Eli have played with all evening, Alli a dinosaur egg that will hatch, and Eli a stuffy Triceratops, which he named "Cutie"

It was such a fun family afternoon!
All of us had fun and Eli keeps asking when we can go see the dinosaurs again.
Guess a trip to the Science Center is in order this summer.

  1. Looks like a really fun time! Loved the stories and pics. Also loved the landscaping/plant photos as well. Eli was cute on the wall and I am sure the plants look beautiful. :)
