We are REALLY hoping Jamir gets a good job as soon as he graduates, so we are planning our Provo activities as such. One of the things on our Provo Bucket list was going to the dinosaur museum at Thanksgiving Point. Fridays are half off, so it was worth it. Yesterday we went to Buffalo Wild Wings for 60 cent wings and bowling. I'm realizing that the "pass of all passes" on groupon deal is really only worth what we paid for it...10$ not 50$ as advertised. The bowling alley was so old that the pins wouldn't stay up when they reset, if they would reset. Even so, I don't feel bad about the groupon because it was so cheap and still pretty fun and actually really funny.

| Our eyes where too big for our stomachs...We just wanted to try all the sauces, and that wasn't even all of them! |
 |
| At Scheels, I found this skunk really funny because someone had obviously been playing with it too much. |

| Getting used to these selfies |
 |
| Our scores! Not too shabby...although remember how the pins knocked themselves down? They seemed too easy to knock over so those score may not be accurate. |
 |
| The sunset was beautiful, although I just had my phone to take pics :( |
 |
| I've always wanted to see these in real life. I think I did when I was little, but now I can really appreciate how awesome they are! |

| Reminds my of Jurassic Park. Fun Fact: The movie oversized the raptors, until they found this one in Utah that was actually the size in the movies AFTER the movie was made. So who knows what else the movie got right? |

| Jamir created his own dinosaur |
 |
| I really want a pet dinosaur |
 |
| T rex! |
 |
| I thought this room was the coolest. That is a giant turtle. The one behind it is like the Loch Ness monster. |

Seeing all of these ancient bones really makes your head spin. Dinosaurs have been on the earth WAAAY longer than humans. I just hate not knowing exactly how everything fits together with the creation, but I guess that is the purpose of faith. Even if you don't believe in a superior being, it's an amazing concept that there were these huge creatures walking the earth before us.
Anyways, any ideas for my bucket list? So far I have tubing down Provo river for tomorrow and 7 Peaks in Salt Lake and Hogle Zoo next week. Anything else to do for summer or fall before we leave?
