A-Scary-Um (Aquarium)

Our friends the Butlers found great discount tickets to the Aquarium. Kids got in free if they wore their costume! It was SO MUCH FUN! And Travis had never been!! 

Kaylin loved all the fish and they seemed to love her. 

It was kind of strange...In the under water tunnel she stood up on a ledge and a school of fish zoned in on her.  You can't see it very well here, but when she first stood up they looked like those fish on Nemo who would change shapes to make signs.

Ethan in the tunnel with Dad. He was a little nervous:)

I had no idea that shark was behind me! Holy Crap! It took a lot of calm breathing to walk to the rest of the tunnel! ;)

Me and Travis in a huge stadium room watching giant sting rays. They would do circles in the water, it was amazing!! They also had huge whale sharks, biggest fish in captivity.

 Mika was so good in the aquarium. She loved seeing all the fish and was content to spend most of the time in her stroller. Here there wasn't room for the stroller to see the penguins, so she stood on some decorative rocks. What a big girl :)

 We went to the kids exploratory where they could pet sting rays and little sharks. Kaylin was the only brave soul in our family besides Travis. Behind us is a play place and slides they spent a lot of time on.

When we got out the kids were so hyper and I was so exhausted! Funny how that works! :) Luckily there was a great playground across the street that the kids could have played on for hours! Then we headed off to my parents to meet my cousin and go to their trunk-or-treat!
