The first thing you have to know about Dinosaurs is they lived thousands of years ago, along side Turkeys, Zebras, Man, Lions, Tigers, and Bears, oh my!
Some Dinosaurs were as big as your house, while some were as small as your average sheep, or chicken.
Here are some example Dinosaurs
1. The Thesaurus was a docile plant-eater, about as big as a horse that loved to help other animals increase their vocabulary. It was shaped like a book for some reason.
2. Ihopenobodysaurus was also a plant-eater. Although we have fossils of it, scientists think it could turn itself invisible, to hide from predators, and so nobody would know it had really bad acne.
3. Tyrannosourus was a meat-eating dinosaur, that, after it's meal, ate Lemon Sours. We know this because it had very bad teeth, and possibly bad breath. It died out because there weren't enough tic-tacs to go around.
4.The ConstittuasaurU.S. was a VERY patriotic dinosaur. It was one of the first dinosaurs ever to establish a government much like the one we use today. It could eat both plants, and meat.
I hope this helps all those misconceptions about those awesome creatures! Until next time, Creator's Son, and Spike, the Igaunodon (a real dinosaur)!
(Disclaimer: I do know all about dinosaurs, I just thought you would enjoy this more!)

The Tournament Begins
continued from A New Battle
The children crowded around the poster Kay held up.
"Wow!" Sara exclaimed. "We'd better start training, if we want to make it!"
Sara and Kay started to run off.
"Coming, Sam?" asked Kay.
"I'll catch up." Sam said, unconvincingly.
***
Sam closed the door to his room and leaned on it with his back it. When he had talked Sara about the Aptarix, and she had smiled at him, it brightened his day. And Sam knew why. This was probably a cliche sub-plot Creator's Son wrote in here because he's a teen-age boy. Sam quickly shook the thought out of his head and apologized for ruining the sub-plot. There would be time to think about Sara Mills later.
Sam had a tournament to win.
***
"Wow, look at this lake," Kay said running her hand though the crystal clear water. "Shouldn't there be, I don't know, fish in the water?"
Sara pushed a lock of her blond hair out of her eyes and looked at her father. "Could one of the Evol type sporemon do something like this?" asked Sara.
Mr. Mills rubbed his chin thoughtfully. "The water type may eat fish, so it's a definite possibility."
Sam ran up the concrete path to the stadium. "Come on," Sam yelled. "It's almost time to start."
Sara, Kay, and Mr. Mills walked up the path to the stadium.
A voice came booming over the intercom. "ALL CONTESTANTS STEP FORWARD. WE ARE ABOUT TO BEGIN!" The crowd in the stands went wild, as the first-ever tournament got underway.
TO BE CONTINUED.....
The children crowded around the poster Kay held up.
"Water-side Stadium Tournament!
In a first ever sporemon tournament,
people
will battle with sporemon
until one is left standing!
Can you make it to the end?!
Come to Water-Side stadium for fun and to Win!"
"Wow!" Sara exclaimed. "We'd better start training, if we want to make it!"
Sara and Kay started to run off.

A New Battle
continued from : A Turn of Events.
Aptarix slammed against the glass of his new enclosure again, full force. Sara and her father watched the sporemon try to escape slamming into the glass wall over and over.
"It doesn't learn well," Mr. Mills stated. "Very stubborn. It still doesn't realize it can't get out."
"Is there any way we can help it, Dad?" Sara asked.
"I don't think we can. Your mom just did test results and it's an original creature, there is no 'evolved' form of this sporemon, this is it."
Sara looked down. She wasn't one of those environmental extremists, but she cared for God's creatures and was a good steward. Not being able to turn it back from what it was, because it didn't evolve from a sporemon, that it's stuck like that.... she felt a hand on her shoulder.
"Sara," Sam said as he walked up beside her. "Don't be sad. It's in its created form. Sure it's berserk, but you and your parents can train it to calm down, train it to help. Who knows? The other sporemon may teach it about Jesus in some way."
Sara nodded. With Jesus, there is always hope, she thought.
Kay came barging into the room with a piece of paper in her hand. "There's going to be a first-ever sporemon tournament by the river!" she panted.

A Turn of Events
Continued from Aptarix Returns
Caterwaller dug it's claws into the tree's bark and leaped nimbly up. In a few minutes it would be high enough to jump out of the tree and grab the Aptarix.
"Go!" Ali shouted and pumped her fist in the air, cheering Caterwaller on.
The Aptarix saw the battle that knocked out its puppet, the Rhano. It also saw a Caterwaller climbing up a tree. No doubt those humans were trying to catch him. He dove down and looked Caterwaller straight in the eyes. Caterwaller started climbing down.
"Caterwaller, what are you doing!? We need to get Aptarix for Grandpa!" Ali had no idea Catterwaller was hypnotized.
"Hmmmm..." Sara rubbed her chin, thinking. "We need something to block Aptarix's hypnotic move..."
"Wait!" Sam said "Your bracelet!" Sara looked down at her wrist. She wore a light green bracelet with a small metal plate in the middle. "See how it reflects?" Sam asked.
Sara looked at her exaggerated, upside down head in it's reflection, and smiled. "We don't even have to get to the treetops." Sara pumped her fist and turned it. The sun's refection flashed at Aptarix and he fell to the ground, blinded. Lightning walked around and rubbed on Aptarix, like all cats do, shocking the stunned Evol type into unconsciousness.
"We did it!" Sam said.

Our Trip to Brenham and Back
This last Wednesday through Monday trip was to Brenham and back, as you've already surmised from the post title.
We stopped first at Waco and went to a Heritage museum and got to see a real-working water wheel, blacksmith shop, and woodworking station! We also went to a natural history museum and their "Emergence of Man" Exhibit just had tools and dates! No missing link fossils or anything! Wow! Really good proof of evolution don't you think?
We went to a Dr. Pepper museum and a Texas Ranger Museum after that. It was cool to see all those different glasses that they used before soda cans!
Before we left Waco, we made one last stop. Mardel. It was SOOO cool! Alyssa almost got a new CD, but it would have used all her money. She even got to listen to some Andrew Peterson CDs! I got an awesome shirt (Not that almost ALL their shirts aren't awesome!) that says "American by birth, Christian by choice." It was true. I have the right to choose, and NO ONE can take that away from me, my family, or any one else in this country.
Then we went to Brenham, and they had one of the COOLEST Wal-marts on the planet. They had a Beyblade named Ray Gil, one of the few I don't have, and they had Team Packs. Right now, Beyblade Metal Masters has each of the best Beybladers from around the world compete to be the world's best Blader, and they had Team USA's beyblades all in one package! We got those and they rule! But enough about that.
We also got to see the Lorax in a theater (before Mustang! Whoooo!) and it's a pretty good, (and funny) movie.
On Sunday, we went to the Renaissance festival which, almost surprisingly, was pretty decent. It was more Family oriented and most of them had decent costumes. There was even a really cool faun (Think Narnia) costume! I even got a lucky Dragon Scale necklace and an archer-type hat!
This vacation was well needed, but by the end of the LOOOOOOOOOOOONG drive home I was ready to crash. And that's what I did.
I hope any of you reading this have great vacations, whether you're on them now or planning them. Have a great week!

Me at a knife-throwing game at the Renaissance Festival. I didn't hit the target, but I stuck a knife in a wooden wall behind the target!
This vacation was well needed, but by the end of the LOOOOOOOOOOOONG drive home I was ready to crash. And that's what I did.
