Birthday Party Part One

Finley's birthday party this year was held at the Downtown Aquarium.  The first part of the party was held in the actual aquarium exhibit.  Our very large group (19 kids, 2 babies and all their parents) toured the aquarium and took in all the sites.  There were so many different kinds of sea animals to see, the kids really had a great time walking through all the exhibits.  I was surprised how into it so many of them were, especially since it took nearly an hour to make it through all the different parts.  From the jelly fish to the coral reef, Finley was having a blast.  And if she lost sight of Max for more than a minute, she would exclaim, "Where's Max?"  The kids got to touch hermit crabs and sting rays, it was really interactive.  At the end of the exhibit, there was  training session for the white tigers, which was really neat to see. It was so nice to have so many people come together to help celebrate Finley's birthday party.
