Swim with the Fish

Since kindergarten, Owen has been saying he wants to be a marine biologist when he grows up. The Denver Aquarium has a special program called "Swim with the Fish," where you can suit up and snorkel with sting-rays, Moray eels, nurse sharks, a 400-pound Queensland grouper and 400 other underwater animals. Owen has been wanting to do it for months. His birthday seemed like the perfect time to surprise him by granting his wish. Jack was more than happy to be his buddy.

 Getting suited up, Daddy-style. It is virtually impossible to get those wetsuits on!

 All suited up and ready to dive. A little nervous but mostly excited!


And away they go!

I headed down a few levels to see the tank from underneath. Owen kept the blue floating dumb-bell, so that's how you can tell the boys apart in the pictures.


Both boys loved every second of their adventure and they've been talking about it for weeks.
