Uncle Jim and Katherine bravely joined the boys an I at the aquarium on our last day together. The boys were so excited. We had been talking for a couple of days about the sharks, fish, turtles, etc. However, it is always fascinating to me to see new things through these guys eyes. They loved every minute of it! This first part has some of the first animals we saw.
I absolutely love this picture of Tucker. He was too excited, and his little smirk there is what the whole trip was about. He watched everything. Here he was watching the first penguins that we saw. I am not sure any of the details of the animals…don’t judge. I have no idea what kind of penguins they were or where they are from. I was too busy watching out for two little boys in a very crowded aquarium, taking pictures, and enjoying the moments. ANYWAY, he was hooked! We will definately have to go again really soon!
This little guy greeted us as we first entered. He came down off of his tree and looked directly at Tucker and Tanner. It was really too funny. This is him down by the glass checking the boys out.
These guys were HUGE! This picture does not do them justice.
I love this one! Tanner was really listening to Uncle Jim!
My favorite!!! One of the main reasons that I love the aqarium is the manatees! I could sit and watch this tank forever. It was feeding time when we were there so everything was swimming around and eating. These guys had a lot of lettuce to snack on.
Look! My favorite! Barbara Manatee!!!! (Yes, that is a Veggie Tales reference!)
The boys in front of the tank! Tanner was of course laughing and enjoying Katherine and Uncle Jim!
Sister, I added this just for you:
