Mote Marine

While Lila's Mom and Dad moved into their new house with some assistance from Jeff, Braeden, Teagan, and I took Lila out for a day of fun. First we went to Mote Marine, our local aquarium.
We could pet stingrays. They had the barbs removed, so they would not sting. We all noted they were very soft (except for Lila who liked the water better than the stingrays).
Lila would only let Braeden carry her or pick her up to see and he was great about it! Here they are able to touch things in the touch tank. Lila liked splashing in the water best. The rest of us were thrilled to touch sea urchins and sea stars.
Lila loves Teagan's flip flops. Actually I think she loves all flip flops, but Teagan's are especially great!
