Russell asked me what I wanted for my birthday this year. I said I wanted to spend the day at the Oregon Coast Aquarium. So that's where we spent the day. The first four pictures were of different aquariums the boys and I thought were really cool. Michael really like the first one because it has lots of fish like Dory from Finding Nemo.


I like this one because it had lots of seahorses.


I think I will make this picture the new desktop on my computer. I just like looking at it. It's relaxing to me.

The boys hanging out. L-R we have Nephi, Michael, Christopher and Donovan.

Russell and the boys watching the seals and sea lions. We had fun here. The animals seemed to know they were being watched.

This is the biggest one we saw. Most of them liked swimming on their backs.

At the end of Passages of the Deep is this huge gigantic shark mouth. Nephi, Michael and Christopher are in it.

At the touching pool. Nephi and Christopher are touching starfish.

A red octopus. The younger boys thought this was really neat.

Inside Passages of the Deep. There are three separate tunnels. We liked this one the best as sharks and rays are swimming all around. We are sitting here watching them. We have L-R Nephi, me, Michael, Christopher and Donovan. D's face is a bit blurry because the flash wasn't on. If you move the slightest it messes up. Oh well.

A tiger shark swimming by.

Russell went to help Nephi tie his shoes and was informed by said son he could do it himself. Which he is now demonstrating.

At the end of the trip. L-R Russell, Nephi, Donovan, Christopher and Michael. You would think with all the myriads of people there - we could have asked someone to take a family picture. Well - we didn't.

Oh what fun - and what a special birthday present! - ellie
FUN Candace! but where are Christopher's glasses? does he still need them? He hasn't had them the last few times we've seen him. Just curious! Happy 4th!
He says he can't see well far away with them on. We will take him back to the dr. before school starts to see where he stands. He doesn't seem any worse for not wearing them.
