Aquarium

Aunt Kasandra gave us passes to the aquarium for Christmas.  The boys loved it.  Fish are one of the animal sounds that Jaxson knows so he liked the fish the best.  He was pretty cute making fishy faces back at the fish.

Kade said he wanted to touch the sting rays but after we got his sleeves rolled up he wasn’t quite brave enough.  Maybe next time.

DSC_0113 We spent the most time at the shark tank.  Kade was very impressed by them.  He also loved to watch the octopus.  I was more interested in watching Kade’s face.DSC_0129 DSC_0134

Thanks Aunt Kasandra!  Kade asks to go back every time we go to town.
