Penguins, Sea Turtles, & Christmas Lights

On Wednesday Terry, Bella & I decided to head down to Galveston. The weather was nice so it was a great day to take a little trip down there. We headed to Moody Gardens and went to the aquarium. At first Bella wasn't to fond of the of all the fish. They seemed to scare her. But after I VERY EXCITEDLY showed her the penguins she was much better. The penguins are my favorite so we spent quite a bit of time watching those silly things play. After that Bella referred to all the fish, turtles, penguins, sharks, eels, seals, etc. as "silly".

She even laid down on the floor after she finally got comfortable.

She also started pointing things out and "talking" about them. It was so fun to watch her warm up and get excited about everything she was seeing.

"Silly"

After we walked through the aquarium we decided to go over and walk through the festival of lights. We had such a great time. The lights were so pretty and it was something we had never done before so we really enjoyed it.

Our only family picture for the day. A nice man offered to take our picture for us.

The lights along the way.

There was so much to look at and the lights were so detailed.

Cheesing for the camera when we got home! Silly goose!

We had such a good day and I hope will get to go back down there again soon. I want to take her to some of the other attractions down there. We are so lucky to have such fun things so close to us for her to experience.
