Over Memorial Day weekend Chris and I decided to take the boys on a adventure and we headed to Dinosaur State Park. It's abouta hour drive so we hit the road early to get there before lunch time. We stopped at Dinosaur World which is right outside the park and is really pretty neat. They have a big trail with a bunch of huge dinosaurs along the way.
Ahhh!!! The T-Rex ate Britton...
Now he ate Everett too!
The boys ran from dinosaur to dinosaur. They really enjoyed every second of it
There was a couple live deer that we got to see taking a drink.
We then fed the fish in the little lake
After our dino walk we had a fossil dig and everyone got in on the action. Britton really enjoyed finding the fossils in the sand and the little boys really enjoyed throwing the sand.
They let each kid keep 3 fossils and Britton is very proud of his treasures.
We then headed to the Dinosaur Valley State Park to check it out. There was 3 or 4 places where there are dinosaur tracks and we stopped at one to check it out. We had to go down some really steep stairs and then cross the river on a bunch of rocks. It was really difficult with all the kids, but we made it without any issues. A park ranger lady came by on a big atv and really liked the boys so she let Britton sit on the atv and she let us under the ropes so we could get a really good look at the footprints. They were really cool and the boys enjoyed touching, looking and stepping in them.
After that adventure is was really late in the day, so we packed up and headed home. We will definitely be visiting the dinosaurs when it cools off.
Wow, that sounds like a really fun day trip! We may have to come with you when the weather is better!
