Last Friday, Matt took the whole day off of law school and we headed down to Galveston for some famliy time. We went to the Moody Gardens' Aquarium, which was fabulous! Michael loved it and ran from tank to tank squealing in delight at all the fish, seals, turtles, penguins, sea horses, etc. 
They have this huge tank where you can go "under water" in a tunnel and see huge sharks, sea turtles, eels, and schools of fish. I think that is the coolest part. You could literally spend hours just sitting and watching and never get bored!
Yes, the sea turtle really is as big as a grown man!
In the evening, we headed to the beach for Michael's second adventure with the ocean. Last year about this same time, we took him to the beach before he was really mobile. It's much more exciting when you get to play in the waves! He especially loved picking up sea shells and throwing them into the water as the waves came up.Back at home, enjoying a nice evening of bubble blowing.
