Visiting the Fish

"Andy, Gracie, Bailey and Lauren watching the fish"
We were so excited when my sister, Mary Ellen invited us to go to the aquarium. We talked to the twins about visiting the aquarium and they must have said "fish" about a million times while getting ready to go. Gracie and Bailey always love spending time with their cousins, Lauren and Andy. This was the twins second visit to the aquarium as we went last year but I am pretty sure they did not remember it. It was so much fun to see Gracie and Bailey's expressions when they saw all of the fish. Gracie squealed and shook in excitement every time we walked up to a tank. Bailey stood with his hands and faced pressed to the glass at each tank and didn't seem to pay attention to anyone or anything except the fish. Gracie thought that the moving sidewalk in the tunnel was pretty neat and she just looked down at her feet and grinned when she realized that she was moving while standing still. At the end of the sidewalk she tried to move backwards because she didn't want to get off. We enjoyed lunch at the aquarium and were surprised when our friends Zach and Katie came to meet us and visit a couple more exhibits. Gracie and Bailey both fell asleep on the way home after a fun day of fish viewing!
