Boston

On Wednesday and Thursday we took a family trip to Boston. Jeff and I took turns doing temple sessions and then Thursday we took the kids to the Boston Aquarium before we headed home. We had a blast. Daniel loved learning about baby turtles during the special meet an animal time for kids, and Kaylie loved being able to run around.
They also had to tidal pool where kids could touch star fish, sea urchins, hermit crabs and a horse shoe crab. Kaylie stuck her hand right in the water and grabbed a hold of a little sea star. Daniel on the other hand was hesitant to put his hands in the water, but eventually did.




Here I am showing Daniel the hermit crabs. Kaylie even held a baby one in her hand. It was so much fun.


Here are Daddy and daughter in front of the Giant tank. Kaylie loved standing in front of it and watching the sea turtle, sharks and other larger fish swim right in front of her.


Kaylie is posing in a giant clam shell.

Our little mermaid!!!!!


On our way out of the aquarium, after being there for 5 hours.
It was an amazing trip, all but the $30 bucks we had to pay for parking, and that is after a $5 validation stamp. We recommend the aquarium to anyone, but do not park right next to it. There are defiantly cheaper places to park, you just have to walk. We were so upset when we realised how much it was going to cost, it was to late by then we were done and ready to go home.

Your kids are so cute. Looks like you've been busy since Christmas, but it looks completely fun.

What a fun trip! That's cool you could go to the temple. I'd love to go to Boston someday and see everything there.

She is so fearless!!! It looks like you had a great trip. I'm glad that you updated your blog. I should have checked sooner. The kids look so much bigger than they did at Christmas. I'm glad that you had fun.

AJ, I hope you check this! Your kids are so adorable. I can't believe how big they both are getting. How is life in New York? We both should check our blogs more often to keep in better contact! I hope things are going well. Lara
