For selling a ton of cookie dough in the school fundraiser Max won a trip in the money machine. He only had ten seconds and only caught a couple of dollars but each winner was guaranteed $10. He was so excited to get to go. He had set his goal to sell enough for the money machine and did it on his own.
The first grade performed a musical interpretation of the book Where the Wild Things Are. Max loves this book (probably because the main character is named Max). Max was assigned the part of ocean and got to play the glockenspiel.
We spent the last half of Spring Break visiting Papa in Muskogee. He was on hospice care and getting very sick so we wanted to see him while he was still doing well. He didn't disappoint, he would get up everyday and act like nothing was wrong. It was like normal with the exception of his daily nurse visits.
After getting back from Fossil Rim the boys played outside and then we crossed the dam into Glen Rose. We played hard at Big Rocks Park and then stopped off for a snow cone.
Back at the farm we found an old school playground.
After milling about the farm we were on the search for dinosaurs. First stop Dinosaur World. It is an overpriced, cheesy, walk through plastic dinosaur park. In other words Max LOVED it.
After Dinosaur World we went to Dinosaur Valley State Park where they have real dinosaur track fossils to see. The riverbeds were flooded from all the rain we had received but there were still some tracks visible.
