Dinosaur Park

I always say that I wish we got out more and did more things as a family. With three kids all under the age of 5, it takes Herculean effort. Often times we end up changing our minds before we go somewhere because someone is being naughty.

Today we decided to take the kids to the Dino Park in Cedar Creek on the way to Bastrop. We figured that the kids could at least nap in the car on the way. Ryenne was so excited and Kai seemed to be excited too. Cruz of course was just his sweet self.

We got to the Dino park after the kiddos had napped the entire way. It was really cute. A nature trail with dinosaurs and then a playground at the end with sandboxes with "dinosaur bones" to dig up.

At the start of the trail, Kai Boy looked afraid. 


And Ryenne was super excited.
We went through the entire trail and checked out the dinosaurs. Ryenne kissed the dino.

His scared face. He freaked if we tried to put him down. We just talked about how cool the dinosaurs are, how they are pretend, how they don't move. I guess we didn't convince him.
I loved Ry's enthusiasm for everything on the trail. She loved spotting things.

Ok I'll admit it... the T-Rex was a bit intimidating!!!! But the baby dino afterwards was I think Ry's favorite.

After the dinosaur nature walk, we explored the sandboxes and the swings. Kai Boy was finally into it!
It was really nice to get out of the house today with the kiddos and with Peter. It's Spring Break so neither the kids or Peter had school. It was just us today.

We came home and had cheeseburgers - then me, Peter, and Pops did our second night of P90X. We rocked it. It was really awesome.
