Putt Putt and Dinosaurs

Last Saturday, we headed down to Galveston for dinner, putt putt and ice cream! The weather was perfect at our house. It was sunny and warm. Little did we know that 20 miles down the road, as soon as we hit the Galveston bridge, it was dark, foggy and gloomy! The fog was scary movie thick! We ate dinner at our fave Mexican restaurant and decided to go ahead and play putt putt. We had the course to ourselves, which was great considering this was both of the kids first time playing putt putt! Brinley did really well and can actually putt the ball in from a pretty far distance. Clayton enjoyed running around holding his club and ball and running on all the beach themed obstacles! It was wet, but we had a great time! Brinley has already asked several times this week to go play again!

this is how all the pictures turned out later in the evening. No that is not rain, its the FOG!

Monday was presidents day and Jason only had to work 1/2 a day. So, we picked the kids up from school and headed to the Science museum. Brinley has been studying dinosaurs at school and she is obsessed with them! She can name almost everyone! Jason thought she would enjoy seeing the dinosaurs. We first went into the butterfly house. Thousands of butterflies everywhere! Clayton thought it was hilarious when a butterfly would land on him and he would squeal with delight! Brinley was a little scared as they swarmed her (she had on bright colors so I think they thought she was a flower!) but after a while she was fine and liked picking out the prettiest butterflies.


After that, we headed to see the dinosaurs. Brinley named every one and Clayton "roared" at each one!

After the museum, we walked over to Hermann park to let the kids run and play. The weather was absolutely gorgeous! After being trapped in the house for the past month due to rain and freezing weather, we are welcoming spring with open arms! My kids love being outside and we try whenever we have the chance!
