Dinosaurs at the Dinosaur Museum

I have posted a lot of pictures about what there is to do at the dinosaur museum and why Benjamin loves going there so much. Michael took some great pictures of the exhibits when he took the kids on Saturday, and I borrowed the pictures from him as usual. I think we are feeding each other's habits. I love to blog and he loves to take pictures, so as long as he is taking pictures and sharing them with me I post them on the blog to share with everyone else. However, I do believe that I will probably slow down on my blogging sooner than he will slow down on taking pictures. Anyway, here are the dinosaurs.



The children call this their 'pet' dinosaur. They love to climb on it, poke its eyes, and give it hugs. It is one of the hands on activities and right behind it are the top 10 questions (or most frequently asked questions) about dinosaurs, thus Mom gets a chance to learn something new each time we go. (I have yet to memorize all ten answers!)

To give you an idea of how big this sea turtle is look at Benjamin down in the right hand corner. The first time Bekah saw this she started to cry because it was so large and so unexpected when we walked from the Tyranosauruses into the the deep sea life room.

One of the guys in our old ward, Brock, put this Triceratops skull together. He is now working on putting the body together but because the skull is so large he needed to get it out of the garage so that he had room to work on the body. Luckily, he has done a lot of work for the museum and they wanted to put it on display for a while.
