Road Trip to the Aquarium

Today Emma and I went with my mom out to the Wild Life Zoo and Aquarium. My mom's good friend, Shelly and her niece and nephew, were suppose to come with us, but the kids are sick so they couldn't make it. That just means that we will have to plan another trip out there!
We had a great time and of course Emma loved all the fish. One of the nice things, was that they weren't really busy, so I felt comfortable with Emma walking around on her own. She basically wondered around the aquarium where ever she wanted!


This was the first guy to greet us. I think it was some sort of an alligator snapping turtle.







Emma loved looking at this dwarf crocodile. She stayed her for long time and then would follow it when it moved around.


Following it to the other side....


These fish were so pretty and brightly colored!


Some big fish!




Poison Dart Frogs. They were all different colored frogs in here, but this one she stuck to the glass


Penguins!


The restaurant where we ate lunch at had this huge aquarium right in the center. Plus they had fun music on. Emma spent her lunch watching the fish and dancing to the music!


No more pictures mom!


You can't tell, but she is bobbing her head to the music in this picture

After the aquarium we walked around Hobby Lobby and Target. I am also doing a photo scavenger hunt on my photography site, so a lot of time was spent crossing off items on my list. Once we got back to mom's house Emma played for a little bit and she discovered that she could fit inside her toy boxes!



Emma had a great time with grandma today, and of course she spoiled both of us. Thanks for a great day mom!
