The Aquarium

I am pretty sure it was the 23rd of Feb. that my parents and  Aryssa went to the Aquarium with us. Aryssa had come down to Salt Lake from Boise for the weekend. Mike and I had taken her out for Mexican with my grandparents the night before. Then on that morning we met my parents and pretty much the whole family at Jim's for breakfast. There were my parents, Aryssa, my grandparents, Uncle Clint and Melissa and their kids, Aunt Debbie and Uncle Dan and Skyler and Marina that were all there. It was fun to see everyone and chat and enjoy just being together. After breakfast we went to my Grandma and Grandpa Jacksons house and the kids played for a few hours and the adults chatted. That was fun. Then we headed over to the aquarium with just my parents and Aryssa. The kids had so much fun. Looking at the fish in all their tanks and the jelly fish that turn color. They loved the otters and wanted to stay there the whole time, I am pretty sure the otters were their favorite. The penguins  were a close second. We were able to see little sharks and Ethan even pet one, my brave little boy. Evylee almost did but then the one she went to pet moved to quick and she freaked out. We watched the big turtle and sharks in the big tank and got to see a bunch of yucky spiders. Ethan really like the little crocodile they have there and both the kids loved being with their grandma and grandpa. It was fun to spend that time with the three of them and seeing them watch the kids get excited about everything. It was a ton of fun. Sadly, my camera died and all I have from that day is breakfast and one video of the kids at the otter exhibit. Hopefully my mom got some good pics that I can use at a later time.

Yeah my camera was acting weird too and made Aryssa REALLY white :) ha ha

Enjoying food with everyone

Aiden was so good for the hour or so we were there. Just sat there playing and chatting to himself

This was pretty funny. Ethan kept trying to drink the coffee creamer. He succeeded once and this is Mike catching him before he did it again. It was pretty funny. He moved for creamer to the sugar packets after that. Luckily our food came before he got those open too.
