Our mini vacation

We took a little trip down to Glen Rose, TX a couple of weekends ago.  We really needed a few days away.  It is called the Dinosaur Valley because they have found lots of prints and bones around the area.  The boys love all things Dinosaur, so it was a really nice time.  
Dinosaur Valley State Park:
Climbing rocks!

If you look at where they are pointing you will see a dinosaur foot print!



Crossing a little river to find some more tracks.

There are some large prints in there, but the water was a little muddy.



The T-Rex from at the State Park from the World's fair.

Along one of the trails of the park.
Dinosaur World is another nearby attraction that has dozens and dozens of dinosaurs along a circular path.  There is also a little playground, store and the best part: a fossil dig.  The boys got to dig through the sand and find fossils like shark teeth.  They were allowed to keep three items and I think they both got some shark teeth.  I can't remember any of the dinosaur names, but I'm sure Ethan does if I asked him.  Enjoy!
