Dallas Aquarium

This weekend we went to visit Matt's parents in Texas. Plus it was Marks' 50th birthday. It normally takes us about 2 1/2 hours to get to his parents house in Sherman, but this time it took us a little over 3 1/2 hours. There was one bad part on the highway that was under construction and we all had to get over to one lane. Plus there was sooo much traffic. I asked Matt what the big deal was with everyone going to Texas. He said that was where the OU game was at in Arlington at the new Dallas Cowboys stadium. Well, we all know how that turned out.
Boo-Hoo-mer Sooner!!! J/K :)

We went to Dallas on Saturday to go to the Dallas World Aquarium. It was pretty neat. It seemed more like a Rainforest though. You have to start out at the top of the building and work your way down. There was a lot of different types of birds their. Emily got to feed a bird a grape. It snipped at her finger a little bit and she kept telling me the rest of the day that it bit her. Here's Pops and Emily and she was hamming it up.

They kept telling secrets to each other.

They had several different kinds of monkeys, birds, turtles, and even a sloth that were all open around us. It was kind of neat.

Here was a tiny frog that was in a small glass aquarium that was on the side of a wall. It was so tiny.

They even had a penguin exhibit that was outside. I guess I thought they lived in more cooler climates because it was hot yesterday and the exhibit was all open outside.

Emily kept pointing out all the Nemo fish.

I tried to get a decent pic with her but she didn't want to.

But she would pose for us all by herself.

Here she is being silly with Grandma.

Thanks Pops and Grandma, we had a great time.
