Dinosaurs!

This weekend, Grandma & Grandpa Clarkson treated us to the "Dinosaurs Unearthed" exhibit at Union Station. We had been wanting to go and we were excited when we were invited to attend as an outing for Eli's birthday. It was great fun and I think it's safe to say that dinosaurs are now on Eli's "awesome" list :) Enjoy the pictures!

"Roar!!!":


Yikes...nice teeth!:



Hilarious picture....although he never got really scared during the whole exhibit!:






Holy smokes....quite the hair twirler these days. You'd think he was a nervous kid or something!:




After the exhibit, Eli & Anna were treated to a Build-a-Dino doll. We've never been to Build-A-Bear so this was new to us. I must say it is too cute who they do it. The kids take part in making the dino even pushing the pedal to stuff it. They do this cute little rhyme when the heart is put inside and even stuff in the bar code so if the dino ever got lost, it could be brought to a Build-A-Bear store anywhere in the world and would be scanned and sent to us. Too cute!:

And here are the kiddos posing with their dinosaurs. Anna's is as big as she is!!:


Thanks Grandma & Grandpa Clarkson for a fun afternoon! We love you!
