ML the New Years

We usually get together with some Peace Corps friends for MLK weekend but decided to make it a New Year's event this year. We went to Baltimore and enjoyed the National Aquarium (complete with Sydney and Evelyn's first 4D movie experience), ice skating in the park, and the Children's Museum...plus a kid friendly "New Year's in Ireland" party.

Getting ready for the dolphin presentation

Sydney loved seeing the dolphins jump and spin - she told me later she had no idea they could do that before she saw it!

Joshua thinks the eyes behind Sydney make this photo amusing/spooky.

Evelyn and Leah loved the "butterfly" tunnel in the toddler room

Sydney enjoyed using her soccer skills in the indoor arena

The indoor soccer floor later turned into an exercise room

Leah's hands on her hips were hilarious during the dance sequences

Sydney testing out the surfing/snowboarding

The kid contingent

Happy 2013!
