Sea Lion Friends!!!

I'd like to introduce you to our friends, the Sea Lions!

Eric and Sara were first introduced to sea creatures before Sara could walk! This was their very first visit to our Aquarium! They loved it then...

And they LOVE it now!

After New Years the Aquarium got some new friends for us to visit, the sea lions! We LOVE them! We've seen the show so many times now, that we could probably put it on ourselves! And yet, it never gets old!

Since then, we've introduced our new friends to so many of our family and friends! They've met...

Grandma and Grandpa!!!

Oh they met Grandma alright! As we were watching them swim, the trainer came over to call them in for the night. She clapped her hands and POOF!, before you knew what happened, all three sea lions came walking over to us and we could touch them!

I thought this was the coolest thing ever! Grandma however, well, she was gripping my arm with all her might and ran away screaming! Hahaha!!!

Mimi and Grampa!!!

Auntie Lisa, Lauren and Tyler!!!

Uncle Paul!!!

The Bruno Family!!!

and...The Simmons Family!!!

Unfortunately our friends were just visiting the aquarium. The last time we went Eric noticed their sign on the outside of the building was down, so he figured they probably went back to their home. Sure enough, he was right :(

Though our Sea Lion friends were so much fun to have around, so are all the other sea creatures that live there! These are just a few of the amazing little guys we've explored during our visits!

Our little explorers!!! We love their love for the aquarium, and the world around them!
