OUR DAY AT THE AQUARIUM

Janine and Rik invited us to go to the Fort Fisher Aquarium. We had a great time and I took tons of pics. Caleb and Gabe posing with the gator.
Notice Gabe's thumbs up.
Mater and the gator!


Stack of turtles.

Silly turtles.

Best buddies!

This green eel was huge.





Another huge eel.



I think Gabe is feeling introspective.
Daddy, Gabe and Caleb.


There was an octopus curled up in this hole.

These jelly fish were very cool to see.

We got to see divers in the tank and we could even ask them questions and hear them talk.
These huge lobsters were making me very hungry!



A very pretty purple tree frog.

It was almost time to see them feed the gators. They were all fighting for a spot in the sun.




Janine, Rik and the girls watching the show.

This girl went in and started poking them with a net pole to get them into the water but this one was having a stand off.

So she got a bigger stick and the gator begrudgingly got into the water.

To display her displeasure she stayed to one side of the tank and refused to eat.


I am not sure if I would have been brave enough to stand there with all of those hungry gators at my feet.
Good job girls!


They were feeding them pieces of chicken.


Then they gave them special cookies loaded with all of the nutrients that they need.


After getting something to eat it was off to the park for some fun!

Here is Gabe giving Mom a smile!

Ahhhh, Jim and Marty look so sweet!

Kelis is always ready with a great smile!


Mr. Rik was trying to get Gabe.

Our little redhead.

Marty running his mouth as usual.

There's the thumbs up again. It's his new thing!

Jim was being fancy using the panoramic view feature on the camera but as you can see Kelis has gone missing and there are two Calebs.


Here we have Janine and Marty with misaligned bodies.
Sexy look Janine! Great job Jim!
It was abeautiful day and we had a great time!
