this group of girls works hard selling nuts, magazines, & cookies like nobody's business. they are great friends, treat everyone kindly, are very helpful & supportive of each other, and genuinely love being girl scouts. so it is fitting that they would play hard as well. for the end of year celebration they voted to spend their celebratory money on a sea world sleepover & breakfast with shamu. they waited all summer and the date finally arrived last weekend.

| {we learned about sharks & even got to touch babies in the lab.} |
| {this is a shark pod. look closely to see the inch long baby.} |
| {our sleeping quarters: the shark exhibit. this was above our heads.} |
| {photobombing sea lion. got to feed him as well.} |
| {learned that starfish will wrap around your hand if you hold it still for a while.} |
| {i highly recommend breakfast with shamu at least once. a very endearing experience.} |
| {i feel pretty lucky to be in a troop with these lovely moms. we really enjoy each other's company and love to laugh.} |

The best pictures, and so much fun to read. She'll remember this for the rest of her life.
Seriously, I know the sleeping arrangement was far from perfect, but what a wonderful experience!
I know my girls would love to do this. It looks like a whole lotta' fun!
