We are having a great time on Spring Break!

We started out our COLD day indoors in the Oceans building.  Hailey is getting VERY brave compared to other activities we have done in the past.  It only took a couple minutes till she was courageously putting her hands in with live sharks to touch them.  Shelby never did get that brave.

Next we went to the Dolphin Show.  All week long, or maybe even for two weeks, we have been looking forward to Hailey getting to be a Junior Dolphin Trainer.  It has been a great incentive for good behavior, taking naps, doing good work in school, etc.  Here is a picture of her waiting for the show to start.  She got a special Junior Trainer Badge and she had to wait in a special spot until they called her to help.

Here she is with Abbie doing her thing.  Everyone clapped for her and she actually got the dolphins to do their tricks.  I think the Junior Dolphin Trainer experience was great.  It only cost $10.

Here's a dolphin doing his trick.

Another awesome dolphin trick.

A really cool trick!

The penguins actually swam under the floor and you could see them in the glass.

After the zoo we went to the Botanical Gardens.  The butterflies are just starting to hatch or come out or whatever you do when you're a butterfly.
