Wrightsville Beach Day 2 - 9/23/10

On Thursday, we started out our day with a trip to one of our favorite places - Ft. Fisher Aquarium.  They have amazing animals to look at and the kids have always enjoyed it.  It was even better this time because Harris was so into every little thing and Cara would notice the animals too.

As always, Harris has his big cheese ready for me.

Dear Lord, my child's hair!

Just look at that sweet face!

 The first animal we saw was the Alligator.  He was so close to the edge of the glass.  Kinda spooky!

 Nick really enjoyed watching the divers swim with the fish and the sharks.  We had to tear him away to see other things.

Touching the animals.

 Jelly Fish

 A very freaky looking Octopus

 Nick insisted on climbing up on the frog.

After a brief nap, the kids insisted we go back and play on the beach.  They really enjoyed playing in the sand - Cara especially.

 Jumping the waves

 Jump Daddy, jump!

 What a face!  Guess she wasn't happy she fell down.

 Making sand pies.

 LOVE-THIS-FACE!

Who would have thought Cara would enjoy being buried in the sand?

Can I just tell you how gross all this sand is!

 

 Little Miss was NOT happy about leaving the pool.

Day 2 was a success!
