A while ago I won some tickets on the radio for the Heard Museum in McKinney. It is a semi-small science museum and wildlife sanctuary. We had never been there before. Our tickets expired at the end of this year, so we figured this was probably our last weekend to go! Gabe has been asking to go to the "dinosaur museum" for quite awhile. This was his favorite part of the whole thing...the dinosaur dig sand pit. He would have been happy to stay there all day. I forgot the camera, so all these were taken with my cell phone.
They had nine life-sized, moving, "talking" dinosaurs! We didn't know that they moved or made noise until we got there. Gabe did NOT like that they made noise. He startled every time they growled. I think they were a little too life-like for him. He wanted to keep moving so they wouldn't "get him". None-the-less, he enjoyed it. He said the dimetridon (sp?) was his favorite.
We managed to get a few smiles out of him. =) Afterwards, we found out (thanks to the GPS!) that there was a Culvers just 2 miles away. On the way home, we stopped at a local college to see some of our relatives (Jeremy, Angela, and Trevor) who live a couple hours away, but were here for a soccer tourneyment. Good day...another late nap for Gabe.
