Happy New Year!

New years eve we took Alyssa to the aquarium.  Apparently it was the thing to do since it was about 20 degrees outside. It was wall to wall packed we had to practically fight out way up to the tanks. Alyssa loved it. Her favorite thing was the sting ray pool. She would have stayed there the whole time. The first time the sting ray swam by the touched it,  after that when they would swim by she would take out her hands and put them back in the water after they left. But after they left she would say " come here, come here". She is funny. I don't blame her though I get a little nervous the pet them as well. We saw penguins, alligators, all sorts of fish and snakes. They had a reptile room where you could touch disgusting bugs like cockroaches, snakes and other hideous insects. Russ took Alyssa and she touch them with out worry. I almost threw up so I left the room right after I got the picture of her touching the snake. I HATE BUGS! (especially large hissing cockroaches) (how did I survive in the Philippines and Kenya I am not sure)

She's so brave! Good idea for an activity. Both my boys love aquariums.
