This week was also a nice week. We drew from the fun jar go hiking and visit the Jurassic World Exhibition. I have wanted to go hike a greenbelt that is near us since we moved here. Finally, after almost 5 years, we have. This area has over 20 miles of hiking trails and also allows horses. It was raining the day we went so we did not see anyone else, but it would be a fun place to take your horse for a trail ride. It's too bad we can't ride our horse! We managed to get our hike in between rain showers so other than the high humidity it was nice hike. It was pretty flat so it was a fairly easy trail. We have had to scale some mountains on a few of our hikes, but this was like a nice nature walk, though being as competitive as we all are it turned into who can speed walk the fastest walk. Spoiler T and I pretty much walk the same speed. It was a fun way to get a little exercise in and we spent about an hour there hiking.

| It was a nice easy hike though it was super humid. |
 |
| We had a lot fun. We even saw 2 huge trout in the river! |
 |
| We always look so happy BEFORE we hike. |
We went to buy our new oven this week, but it wasn't on sale anymore (even though it was advertised that it was) and they were out of stock so since we don't really need it yet we are waiting until I see a good sale, probably around Labor Day. My kids find it funny that I will never pay full price for anything or rarely pay full price. I am willing to wait patiently until I find a deal I want. The kids pick up on my habits too. T had been stalking the nintendo website waiting for his NBA 2K21 to go on sale. It paid off the other day and during one of their flash sales T got the $100 game for $4.79 or 95% off! The girls also always check sales and clearance racks first before they start looking around at the rest of the store.
The Jurassic World Exhibition is in the Colony this summer and I found a coupon code where we were able to get tickets for about $20-$30 each. It was a really fun experience. It is amazing how life like they can make these robots look. We had a super fun time!

| We were excited to go see this exhibit. T loved dinosaurs when he was little. This was a nod to his 4 year old self. |
 |
| The storm was rolling in. |
 |
| The way the dinosaurs moved and walked around was so freaking cool! |
 |
| It was a good experience. Definitely worth it to us. |
 |
| Lots of smiles. |
 |
| The way it was set up you moved with your group to each exhibit and the hosts talked about what you were seeing. This was the "training" area for the dinosaurs. |
 |
| This was the nursery. |
 |
| A was looking inside one of the eggs. |
 |
| The newborns. L's phone classified them as food.😂 |
 |
| This one moved its neck up and down. The technology was unreal for this exhibit, even the nostrils flared as they were breathing. |
 |
| Luckily, it wasn't very busy when we were there. |
 |
| It was a fantastic way to spend about an hour. |
