Spring Break With The Dinosaurs!

We went back to Dinosaur Valley State Park for Spring Break again this year... our boy LOVES dinosaurs and camping, so this was a dream vacay for sweet Luke!
Big helper:
Apatosaurus and T Rex, 2 favorites at our house! 
Memaw sent Luke a $5 bill so he bought Al the dinosaur at the camp store.  They were fast friends.
A quick bluebonnet pic... LOL! Might be our only one this year :)
Dinosaur tracks in the riverbed
Me having a heart attack.  If not Allie trying to jump in the water, Luke monkeying around on jagged rocks.
Crossing the river- sweet boys.
All set in the tent.  My fancy cot did not fit, so this will be the last year in this tent... I told Brent "Bigger family, bigger tent"... he agreed! 
Campsite #3.  We learned at our last camping trip in Tyler that if a campsite has electrical outlets, the pros string up Christmas lights to play late into the night.  A BIG improvement!
Throwing rocks in the water at dusk... Allie loves to jump in the river and chase them.  Here is where Brent would later find new dinosaur Al on a night rescue mission after Luke discovered he was missing at bedtime :)
We collected sticks in the woods and Brent made us an awesome fire for making S'mores...
Hiking with Daddy
I have never seen my child look older with his own walking stick.  Where did my baby go?!
Luke took our picture in dinosaur tracks too :)

Your right about the picture of Luke. He doesn't look like a toddler any more. He has grown up right before our eyes!

I loved all the pictures! Luke looks like he's in heaven;-) The one of him sitting in the tent reminds me of Brent when he was little. He loved hiking and camping just like Luke.

I'm so happy y'all have to get a bigger tent! More grandbabies for me to love;-)

Much love to my Ft. Worth family!!!
