Dinosaur Zoo

I know what you are thinking. Why haven't we talked about dinosaurs in a minute? It's been too long! Well chill a second because this past Saturday we attended 'Dinosaur Zoo' at the Long Center in Austin.  

 We honestly didn't have a clue what this was going to be like, only that Jackson would obviously like it and that James obviously didn't have a choice.

 These puppets were pretty cool, I must say. The puppeteers were also pretty entertaining. They engaged the audience during the entire performance and picked kids at random to join them on stage. Jackson and I tried desperately to get him selected, (at one point he was half way on stage before we called him back) but alas, they picked other kids besides our cub :(

No matter though, he was soooo happy to just be there. Jackson's eyes were GLUED to the stage and James loved it too. He was dancing like a crazy guy, (which is typical James fashion, it had nothing to do with the show. The kid just dances. A LOT. ALL the time). 

 During the second half of the performance the puppeteers told us that "THE T REX HAD ESCAPED!" and they were looking for him up and down the audience. I thought Jackson and James were going to be scared about this (I kind of was) but they didn't flinch. James was kind of disturbed by the triceratops on stage, but other than that he braved the performance like a champ.

After the show the boys had the opportunity to meet and greet the dinosaurs out in the front of the auditorium and we asked Jackson if he wanted to meet them but he told us "No, I just want to eat my sandwich outside and have a picnic". So we did just that....
