The "dinosaur museum"

Tanner saw something on TV recently about dinosaurs at museums and decided that she HAD to go see one.  She asked me over and over if we could go, and it just so happens that the Witte Museum in San Antonio has a dinosaur exhibit right now so I told her we could go.  We took a picnic a few days later and headed to the museum.  I don't think she knew what she was getting into because she took one look at the first dinosaur and jumped into Clinton's arms and started shaking!  It was so hilarious to us, though, because she wouldn't admit that she was scared. She was literally shaking with fear, but she was saying "look how cute they are Mom!".  It was all we could do not to die laughing!  After we saw the dinosaurs we went to the HEB treehouse, which is located at the museum and houses a ton of learning tools related to all different scientific concepts.  Tanner had a really good time there, and we really enjoyed watching her learn/play.  After the museum, we headed to Houston to visit friends and Clinton headed home because he had to work the next day.  We missed him but it was kind of fun to take a road trip, just Tanner and I.

              
Tanner was extremely impressed with the bracelet they gave her to wear.  
Notice how she won't even look at the camera? She wouldn't take hers eyes off of the dinosaur just in case it were to do something... 
I'm pretty sure that this was Tanner's favorite part of the whole thing. She did not want to get off of the elephant!
