This morning we went to the Texas State Aquarium. The kids loved it (well most of it...Zach & Savannah were totally freaked out by the jellyfish room). We took a million pictures (of course), but these are some of my favorite moments. You will notice Zach is in most of them...he was by far the most photogenic today. Every time I said "smile" he was ready and willing. We also went to the aircraft carrier museum after lunch, but that will have to be a separate post...maybe tomorrow.
They have a pool where you can pet the stingrays. Connor loved it and tried to go swimming too. Luckily Dallin was hanging on tight. Jacob touched one but the others were too scared.

Here is Savannah trying to "feed" the sea turtle a stick...
The dolphins were by far the favorite part of the day. We watched them underwater for a while before going to the little show that they put on with their trainers. This is the kids "waving" to the dolphin...
I love Zach. He can make life so entertaining sometimes (see latest Kid Moment on the sidebar of our blog).
Waiting for the dolphin presentation to start...
All 3 dolphins doing their tricks
Jacob getting really excited about the shark...
Savannah actually smiled for me here because these fish were pink...
Zach was terrified of the hermit crabs that you could pick up, but was really excited when the volunteer handed him some empty seashells to hold.
We also went to another animal presentation with birds and other neat things, but didn't last through the whole show (Dallin was walking Connor up and down the stairs, "I'm hungry!", "I need to go potty!")...so we left early for lunch.
