Tyler turns 7!!!

February is kind of a crazy month in our house.  Tyler got to kick off the month by turning seven!
Tyler loves his video games, so decided he wanted a cake representing that.  I suggested I make one
 that looks like a Wii remote or some kind of device he actually uses, but he dedided he wanted to go old school and have a game boy cake.  He's never actually used a game boy, but whatever the birthday boy wants! He also said he wanted me to make it red and this was as red as I could make it, so he had to settle for more of a coral color (yeah, it was pretty much pink) :)
 I also ran out of birthday bags so he had to settle for a big bag that said "baby".  He's a good sport!
 Woo hoo!  Some roller blades from grandma - score!


Instead of a party this year, Tyler decided we should go to the Denver Aquarium to celebrate.  Unfortunately because of unforseen circumstances he ended up having to wait almost an entire month before we could go.  But we finally made it (even if mom had the flu when we went) and it was so neat!
 Super cool green eel

 I thought the face of this fish up in the left corner is crazy, almost not real looking.

Shark right above McKinley's head


Sword fish

 I think this type of jelly fish was called "Moon" something.  Anyway, what beautiful specimens.

 One of the highlights on our trip was the mermaid show.  It was very entertaining, then the kids got to meet them afterwards, except Colton & McKinley were totally freaked out.  Poor kids are so confused.  Just when they were told mermaids weren't real...

We ended the evening at the sting ray "petting pool".


 TJ - the survivor!
