Still more New Mexico!

The next day Briana had to work, but the rest of us went to the Natural History Museum. Quinn loved all the dinosaurs. Take the Thanksgiving Point dinosaur museum and triple it and that is just the dinosaur section of this awesome Museum. The kids thought it was great. They also have a huge section on the computer age since Bill Gates originally wanted to open Microsoft in New Mexico. There were tons of hands on activities to keep the kids interested and they even have a whole section to teach kids about the living descendants of the dinosaurs (lizards, snakes and bugs). They loved it!


Elina, Franciso, Amanda, Olivia, Quinn and Christopher with the "Rexi" as Quinn calls it out in front of the museum!


Here the kids were checking out a dinosaur nest complete with the eggs!


Ricky was just one of the kids checking out what he could find with the microscope. Gotta say he really got the kids into it.



Quinn really liked that some of the dinosaur displays were with bones and others had been recreated to look real!

We all had such a good time but boy were we tired! After Briana got off work the whole gang went out for a New Mexican fiest at Hot Tamales. It was really good food but it was hard to find things my kids would eat well Quinn anyway! Then it was back to the hotel and swimming until the pool closed. It was the last day we got to spend with my sis and her family because they all had to go back to work the next day! So sad I miss them already. I definately can't wait so long in between visits again you just miss out on way to much that way!
