Joseph's 8th Birthday

Welcome back! Here are some photos from Joseph's 8th birthday. (I should mention he prefers to be called Joseph now and although it was a little hard to transition from Joey, I feel I'm about there.) Not pictured are the presents he got (Luigi's mansion and Pokemon Shield for the Switch). We got great use out of them! For his 8th birthday we took him to the San Antonio Aquarium, home to pretty much all his favorite animals. We always enjoy this place! This time we purchased tokens to feed some of the animals. Some were more than others, of course, but it was still fun!

For a good chunk of tokens you can feed an alligator!

Another classic Eden pose.

Anytime there is a frog, I have to take a photo now.

Joseph's favorite here: feeding the iguanas. They weren't too hungry from everyone stuffing their faces, but we got some to take it from us.

They are pretty fun.

Love how colorful this one is.

He wasn't as into axolotls then as he is now, but boy does he love them!

Petting sharks. I still giggle at the one time
one of their sharks was stolen. Poor Miss Helen!

Spotted Eel!

I tried something new for cake this year by making a gelatin beach cake. I would make quite a few tweaks, but it was really good otherwise!

We are so proud of Joseph. He is a kind and beautiful soul.
