so, i’m very behind, but here are some pictures i took on a aquarium outing on halloween with my sister-in-law, stacy, and our niece, madison (aka… dorothy!)

so we toured the aquarium, and spent some time hanging with the artist formerly known as “jewfish” (now named the more PC, “goliath grouper”) …

and then, afterward, we headed out into the blazing, florida, october heat to play in the aquarium’s kid water park. 🙂

(smiling at a camera is just not one of madison’s hobbies. she prefers “blue steel” looks any day.)

(this slide ended up being really fast.   as in, really fast.  as in, it’s probably unsafe.)
