Meg & Joey @ Jess' b day

Above the shark tank

Today was my annual volunteer meeting at the zoo. As part, there was
a behind the scenes tour of the south pacific aquarium tank. This is
a picture of the top. The windows in the water below are where
visitors normally look in. The tank is surprisingly large - it goes
way back. The keeper had lots of interesting things to tell us. Very
fun.

Henry in the Chinese new year parade

Henry's school had a parade of kindergarteners with cool dragon
puppets to celebrate chinese new year. Parents were invited to
watch, Quite fun.

The builder

Max is very into disassembling things in the basement. We are
removing doors and panelling and such in preparation for a basement
remodel. I think he could spend much of every day with a hammer in
his hand. Here he is taking a bookshelf apart.

Swimming class

Henry is in the pollywig swimming class, learning to swim (he can
almost swim on his own.). Here he is with the instructor (in the far
lane of the near pool.)
