Thanksgiving Point Museum of Ancient Life

One of my favorite parts of our whole Utah trip is that Dave and I went running together most of the days that we were there.  We took advantage of the babysitters (thanks to all our family) and the lower elevation.  It was fun running with Melinda, Norm and Maggie during the week.  We loved the trails by Melinda's house.
Melinda and Norm were nice to let us stay at their house for three nights.  Our kids loved playing the cousins.  Jack said he never wanted to leave. 

We went to the Museum of Ancient Life at Thanksgiving Point one afternoon.

Jack and Ben loved the balls and spinning wheel. 

 The kids trying to see how much power they could generate.

"Mom, look at this huge dinosaur!"

 The kids loved the water erosion table.

 We put together the giant dinosaur puzzles.  (We, meaning mostly the adults.)

 Scary shark faces!

 Counting the teeth!

 Who needs to go to the beach?

I think the kids could have stayed at the museum a lot longer, but it was time for dinner, so we made them leave.  They loved it!
