She is the largest, most complete and best preserved Tyrannosaurus Rex fossil yet discovered. She is named for the lady who found her. Her real bones are displayed at the Field Museum in Chicago. They made a cast of her bones and the cast travels throughout the country. She is beautiful and we were soooo happy to see her when she visited Anchorage a few years ago. She just happened to be at The St. Louis Science Center during our brief visit to the city to see my Grandma. We had to take Jillian to see Sue! Jillian is going through a crazy-about-dinosaurs faze. :)
Here we are in front of Sue. This is the only picture where Jillian does NOT have her hand in her mouth.
Jillian is digging for fossils.
How does a T. Rex see? Did you know that a T Rex can only see forward and the green dinosaur to the side is outside of its vision range?
Pretending to be a Paleontologist.
Grandma and Jillian coloring.
Grandma and Papa Doug in front of Sue. She is massive! The Science Center had a wonderful exhibit for Sue that was VERY kid friendly. I am so glad we went!

Looks like Jillian really enjoyed the entire exhibit! That's really cool that they had a "build a dinosaur" and that she was able to make souvenier to bring home! I have went to the field mueseum a couple times and seen Sue...she is humongous!
