This year when we went to Universal we found this guy.

He was super friendly and even nuzzled Kennedy a bit…and didn’t try to eat her head…

Much.

Honestly, it took some convincing to get the kids to go see the raptor, and I was more excited than they were to go see it (and Molly flat-out refused).

It was one of the coolest moments we shared outside of Hogwarts, though.

The raptor was impressive, and the calls it made were perfection.

I was so geeked out, I could hardly think, but it was still so awesome. I can’t wait to go see him again.

5.5 years until 2021!

Not that I’m counting, or anything…
