Monday was President's Day and we decided to celebrate the fathers of our country by visiting the Seattle Aquarium. It's happened to be the opening day of "Octopus Week" which was pretty awesome. Jasper got to make an octopus necklace, watch kids get their faces painted, and listen to some interesting octopus lectures. I learned that an octopus' beak is about the size of its eye and that the beak is the only hard part of its entire body.
Here are a couple of shots from our family outing:

ooooooh how fun. Sara you are such a fun MOm. Always bringing your kids to do fun things and celebrate each holiday.
Today Jimmy was watching a library video called "Dragons of the deep" and he saw on octopus on there and called out "Mom! Mom! Look at this optimus-pus!" It was so funny. He's really into transformers as you can see.
Luv ya sis.
nice! our girls were there Tuesday -- it sounds like the octopi were really neat!
I was there on Monday too! Andrew and I decided the line was quite long when we got there and opted for a stroll in the market instead. Wish we would've stayed the octopus events sound awesome!
I love Jasper's hair! What kind of sling are you using with Gideon?
Those really ARE cute photos of Jasper! David's curls haven't really come back since his hair cut -- I was hoping they'd grow in like Jaspers'!!
When are you next coming to Utah?? We need your advice for the yard come spring. Will you guys come out any time soon?
Love you!!
you guys are the cutest family! Seattle Aquarium? Sounds so fun!!
