We had an exciting time at the Aquarium. Even before we entered the building, the boys (Charlie, Ben and Ben's friend Alex) touched a snake and we watched a juggling performer (Brad got pulled up on stage as a volunteer). Here are some highlights:

Memorial Day weekend 2011

We spent a couple days visiting family in Manhattan, KS. We went to a fun park, celebrated great grandma's 90th birthday, made homemade ice cream and enjoyed being together. Thanks to Aunt Cheri and Uncle Steven for letting us stay with them!

Hutchinson KS

After leaving Manhattan, we drove to Hutchinson. We enjoyed the Cosmosphere (SUPER cool!) and Zoo:
Hotel pool was fun:
