Sitting on my Nest?

More photos from our trip to Monterrey. The first is a confused little Penguin. He is sitting on a next with a fake egg in it. The handlers said that they do this in order to get the Penguins ready in case any do end up mating. This Penguin and his mate take turns sitting on the nest

This photo is of Grammie & Hayden. He had such a good time looking at all the fishes and such.

Hello there!

This is a card that I did for one of my club projects a few months back. I will start posting soon after the project has been completed along with materials....

This card was something that was pretty much cased from SplitCoast.

Enjoy!

Sea Otter at play!

More photos of our trip to Monterrey. This picture is of the very playful Sea Otter, this little guy was having so much fun chasing his tail. You can see Hayden's reflection in the glass, very neat.

The next photo is Hayden sitting in a viewing window looking into one of the big Sea tanks.














This last photo is of me and the kids. We are in a little cave that looks into the Sea Otter tank. Calyn was really freaked out about going in until Hayden & I got in and showed her it was no big deal!

The Secret Life of Seahores @ The Monterey Bay Aquirium

My Mom & I took the kids to Monterey the week after Calyn's birthday. On the first day, we went to the Monterey Bay Aquarium. They have a SeaHorse exhibit there called "the Secret Life of Seahorses". Tons of different types in all sizes.

Before kids, Greg & I dove a lot. Seahorese were one of my favorite little creatures to seek out in the ocean.

This is s great exhibit. If you can, you should go see it!

The first photo is of tiny little seahorses, but it is hard to tell, because they are all small. They are about 1/2 inch long.
The second photo is of a bigger "horse" swimming. Check out the fin on his back. That is how they propel themselves through the water.

The last picture is of me & the kids in front of a statue of a male seahorse. Did you know that make seahorse give birth to live babies and then watch over them? Really cool stuff!

And more Club Swaps...
