I had heard about Thanksgiving Point and there Two Dollar Tuesdays during the month of August. So, I decided we would try it out. I thought I was being smart by waiting until the last Tuesday of the month when all of the kids would be back in school. Apparently I was not the only one with that idea because the place was packed. We ended up waiting in line for about 45 minutes just to get inside the building. Then once inside there were so many people everywhere. But, I guess it was worth the wait and the crowds because Tate had a great time. He loved seeing all the dinosaurs. He says his favorite part was getting use the "paintbrush" to dig for fossils. 
Tate and his cute friends Hannah and Micah. Tate and Hannah must really love that dinosaurs leg.
Tate was creating his fossil. They had little stations where you could do rubbings of different fossils.
Playing in the sand and water table. This is always a favorite.
Tate and Micah about to be eaten by a shark.
The favorite place of the day, digging for bones. They would have stayed there all day if I would have let them. I couldn't actually get a picture of their faces. They wouldn't stop digging long enough to look at me.

After the Dinosaur Museum, we headed over to the Children's Gardens. We didn't stay too long, but it sure was fun. It was a little cool and rainy, but they insisted on putting on their swimsuits and playing in the water.

I love this picture of Tate and Hannah. It was so cute. Hannah was trying to put her arm around Tate for the picture, but he wouldn't get any closer to her. She finally just put her hand on his elbow. I love the look they both have on their faces.
Cooling off under the water fountain. It took Hannah standing underneath the water to prove to Tate that he could do it too.

Yeah I heard about that day from one of my other friends. But at least it was worth the wait. Looks like you guys had TONS of fun!
We went the first Tuesday. It was so packed. I asked and every $2 tuesday is packed. We still had fun.
Tate and friends looked like they were having a great time. Even though a little cold at one time but I am sure a good time was had by all.
