Whale watching

This is a humpback whale we saw in Monterey Bay.

Point Defiance Zoo & Aquarium

We had a beautiful day today, and decided to go to the zoo.  Gia read in the newspaper that one of the zoo's beluga whales died recently.  When we told Giana, she was very upset.  We got her some flowers to take to the zoo.

We saw the surviving Beluga at the Rocky Shores Exhibit.

Giana and Seneca got popcorn from the refreshment stand.

I got a picture of all four girls right before we left.

Perry Girls win sectionals

Gia's twin nieces, Cortney and Casey, go for a rebound in Perry High School's big win.

Stall Tactics

One of the girls' latest stall tactics is to come down after bedtime claiming to be hungry.  If we feed one of them the rest will surely follow.  We have taken to giving them pieces of unadorned white bread to eat, which they happily do if it means they can stay up five minutes longer.

Gia's Birthday

It was Gia's 25th Birthday on 3 March (at least that is how old the kids say she is).

Happy Birthday to Gia.
