The Tulip Fields


We went to see the beautiful tulips about 30 minutes from our house. They had fields of red, yellow, pink and purple ones. It smelled sweet.

Pink!


We had to dodge the orientals in this pic. Leah did a good job aiming. The pink ones were my favorite.

Lots of yellow and sun


The sun was so bright that Leah couldn't keep her eyes open. There was a no-trespassing sign here, but we didn't get caught. =)

THE SEATTLE AQURIUM


The kids and I got out to see the fishies and slimy under water creatures at he aquarium last tuesday. We saw star fish, an octopus, seals, birds, and lots and lots of different fish. The kids got to touch the crabs and sea urchins. Stan liked that part the most. It was even nice weather, so we took a walk out by the sound. The kids loved it and it was actually relaxing for me.

Scuba Sue and Willy too.


This was my first trip to Seattle since we have been here. The aquarium was huge and so was the city.

Pretty fish tanks

Leah took this picture. In this particular tank the fish would swim around and around and around the outside of the tank. Fish are very fun to watch.

Stan liked the fish dome

Stanley was so happy this day which made it extra enjoyable for everyone. He was so curious about the fish and was just beaming the whole day. What a joy he is!!
