Last night, I booked our trip home for Christmas! I'm so excited because this year we'll be going for nearly a month (25 days to be exact)! We'll be leaving on Dec 17th and coming back on Jan 10th. It's a really long trip and I'm really happy we'll be doing it this year.

Last year it had a dinosaur claw, a tooth and a sample of dinosaur skin he had to match up to one on display. He had a great time solving the mystery and even remembered which dinosaur it ended up being. Last year's trip was wonderful. We walked right in,
