Night at the Museum

A couple months ago my cousin and his wife came and visited. They have a little boy, Kale, who is only about a year older than Emmett and we thought it would be a good opportunity to check out the Dinosaur Museum. It was awesome, and both boys had a blast. They had so many neat activities/exhibits geared specifically towards kids (Emmett was a little young to do them, but he still loved watching all the other kids).


Turns out the largest dinosaur found to date was discovered here in Utah by BYU students! It's called the Supersaurus and it was hum-on-gous. I had to take multiple pictures to try to capture it.
There's the head.. wayyyy down there

There's little us standing under it's body


I could have sworn I took one of it's tail too. But it's tail stretched about equally long as its neck and went clear to the other side of the room (which had to be almost the length of a football field!)


This area had Jared so excited he was just about skipping. It was a replica that showed how land naturally forms as a result of the water (Dams, springs, etc).  In fact in the picture above he was just mid-sentence in telling me "See Cassie, and this right here is what engineers are for". He got a little bashful afterward because he didn't know I was snapping a picture. haha!


And I just couldn't help but snap a picture of this... Some historian must have got a little bored and decided to add a little excitement to the place!
