Hampton Carousel

Wanting to try and do something "new" at least once a week we hit up the Hampton Carousel one night before Christmas. We barely made it before they closed, but we did and we were the only ones on it. Oh and we got to see Santa and Mrs Claus on the way out. Good times!













Just our view...

Just our view...




On the way to see our friends, The Larsens. I am SO thankful for them and to have close friends close to us. We love to go and see them. They are only 30 minutes away with no traffic and we may be moving even closer to them soon. WAHOO! I will keep you posted.














Virginia Beach Aquarium

Carlee and I got invited to the Virginia Beach Aquarium with our friends the Stockburgers. We LOVE Aquariums and this one is AMAZING! Here are a few photos for your enjoyment:

Of course we had to try on a few "hats" in the gift shop.


Just one of the hundreds of tanks and gallons of water.




DINNER! We wish. This lobster was HUGE.



Ahhhh! Caught by Jaws. In this photo Muggy was dinner. LOL!


The shark tank. We stopped and sat in the sitting area in front of this tank. The kids as you can see enjoyed some running around...



Carlee's highlight was the touching/hands on area.
Here she got to hold a crab, starfish and a few other things I can't remember.




Riding the dolphin with Isaac and Lizzie (our twin friends).


Check out those colors.


A few alligators...






An awesome tank that goes overtop your head.
These are some stingrays we loved watching swim overhead.



Some HUGE dragons.
