A Jurassic Park Birthday for John Graham Laukhuff

J

ohn Graham Laukhuff, son of Sarah Lindsey and Chase Laukhuff of Natchez, Mississippi, knew he was going to have a Jurassic Park birthday party on the Natchez Bluff overlooking the Mississippi River; but his parents had a BIG surprise up their sleeves. Booked out of Watson, Louisiana, The Dinosaur Experience showed up at the party with Nash and Rexi, one life-size dinosaur and a smaller, mischievous dinosaur. The trailer holding them pulled up, and the honoree and his guests went wild after being told a big dinosaur was in there. They put their little ears to the trailer, listening for any movement. After the children were told that the big dinosaur had to be fed some lunch before being around all the children, obviously so he would not eat one of them, the life-size Nash appeared and then made his exit to the Broadway Street entrance of The Natchez Grand Hotel. After mouths dropped and sheer terror or excitement erupted, The Dinosaur Experience made John Graham’s fifth birthday quite memorable for him and a whole bunch of his friends. Needless to say, the birthday party provided a ROAR-ing good time for all.
