Thanksgiving Point $2 Tuesdays

My wonderful friend Shirley and her adorable son Ryan invited Porter and I to go the Thanksgiving Point $2 Tuesdays with them. First though, we all went out to eat at McDonalds. We ate in the play area and the boys had tons of fun playing with eachother. It was so cute because they are interacting with eachother a ton more now then before. It was like they were playing some sort of hide and go seek game with eachother. It was so cute to watch. Afterwards we headed over to Thanksgiving Point. We walked through the Farm Country and it was a lot of fun. The last time we were here, Porter was only about 7 1/2 months and wasn't that intersted, so this time was a lot more fun. He is still scared of the pony rides though, so we just posed for a picture in front of them instead of riding on them.


Thanks so much for inviting us Shirley and Ryan. It was so much fun seeing you both and getting to spend some time with you guys again. I love that our little boys are the same age. Hopefully they can be friends for a long time. Shirley and Ryan had to leave for swimming lessons and so Porter and I decided to stay for a little longer and tour the Dinosaur Museum since it was only $2. Porter loved the dinosaurs and would roar (like a dinosaur) whenever we would pass a big one. They had a fun little play area where the kids could play with toy dinosaurs and do dinosaur puzzles, etc. Porter loved it and played there for a long time. But I think his favorite part of the museum was where he could play in the sand and dig for dinosaur bones. The only problem was that he kept throwing sand on the other kids and one Mom came up to me and asked if he was my kid and said that I needed to remove him because he kept putting sand on the other kids. I personally think that if you are putting your child in a big sand pit with lots of little kids, they are bound to get a little sand on them..haha. It wasn't like he was doing it on purpose and he is still too young to really explain to him not to throw sand, he was just trying to interact and play with the other kids. Or maybe I am just making excuses for him.. So we didn't stay and play very long. And after the Dinosaur Museum we had to end our fun morning with icecream of course! :)

It was so fun to go with you! I wish we could've stayed and went to the museum with you guys. That mom sounds weird. She should have just moved her kid if it bothered her that much. A little sand never hurt any one. :) I bet he sounded so cute when he roared! We love you guys and thanks for playing! And have fun in Norway!!!!!
