Lucy got QUITE the surprise yesterday when this picture was sent to me via text message:

Dino Car, which she had been eyeing at Kroger, was AT DADDY’S WORK! WHA???

And, that crazy dino didn’t just hang out at Daddy’s desk. Oh, no. He took himself on a little tour of the museum!

He checked out the other dinos in the Fossil Gallery. He really enjoyed meeting Stan the T-Rex.

Then, he went off to have some fun in the Fossil Dig and Gem Panning areas. These are Lucy’s favorite parts of the museum, too! See, they’re soulmates.

Dino Car finished his visit with a stop at the coin vortex, another one of Lucy’s favorite things. He loved it just as much as she did! Lucy was really hoping he didn’t fall in!

Maybe one day Dino Car will go back to Tellus WITH Lucy!
