Don't Miss A Thing!

**** I have a tendency to write several blog posts in one sitting. I like to think of it as time management when I have a big block of time to sit down and get caught up. If you check in on the blog from time to time... be sure to scroll down, and you may have to even click onto the next page to be sure you've gotten all the latest Ramsey news. (Blogger has restricted the number of posts I can have on the first page, so I never know what exactly is coming up). Thanks for checking in with us, and following along on Our Great Life Adventure! ****

D is for Dallas, Dinosaurs and Dolls

The weekend after Thanksgiving we made a trip 4 hours north to Dallas to celebrate Great Grandma Gladys 87th birthday, and also had the chance to make it to Ellyson Newell's 1st birthday party! But before all the birthday parties, Grandma Paula, Braden, Vivian and I got there Friday afternoon to squeeze in a trip to Fair Park, at a Dallas Museum and see an amazing Dinosaur exhibit. If you know Big B... he LOVES dinosaurs!


Look at this massive, life-sized Triceratops!
I do not get enough pictures of them together, they are always on the go.
They had a "dinosaur dig", so future paleontologists can practice!
Braden had looks of awe like this all day. 
And here's a tip for parents... we got there about 2:30 on a Friday afternoon.  All the school field trips were heading out and NO ONE was in this huge exhibit.  We had the place to ourselves.  Awesome for them to take it all in at their own pace and not a worry to let them roam free!
My little lady...
Sweet and Sassy.
Braden is playing here with the box that has buttons for the kids to push and make those big dinosaurs move and roar.  Braden enjoyed it all so very much. 
Grandma Gladys with her daughters, their children and grandchildren.
See the big pink tree, that's a tree that Aunt Sabrina got for Reece and Addison.  They decorated it one evening and Braden got to help.  Then they all decided to pose with their dolls in front of the completed tree... and Braden, not one to want to be left out, asked for a doll too.  And there is Vivian, taking off ornaments, but heard us say "cheese" and stopped long enough to give us one of super cheesy smiles.
And just for the record, I think it's great that Braden decorates a pink tree and holds a doll, just like Vivian wants to play with Braden's tools and dinosaurs.
