THREE GIRLS GOSSIP

Erika and Dennis have continued to embrace their new surroundings! This past weekend they visited the Nisqually Wildlife Reserve for their annual festival, which happened on the rainiest day of the month, although they still had fun. Erika absolutely LOVED creating a fish-print t-shirt with a real Chinook salmon, and she and Dennis also enjoyed the cool touch pool with starfish, anemones, crabs and clams, and the bagpipe band that played was also a hit.
