I have to admit, I am spoiled when it comes to access to fresh seafood!!! So between fresh seafood and fresh veggies, I’m in hog heaven around here!!!

I’m so jealous of Jax and her marine science “school.” Yesterday they had a field trip to an aquaculture farm. Today they are at a UVA research center in a little town named Oyster!!! They are out in the marsh learning how to do water sampling and testing.

I still can’t get over how proud I am of her getting into Gov’s School, especially now that I know so much more about just how competitive it is. Granted the application process is only openned to the kids in the Talented and gifted program, but still -— she was competing against 5th, 6th, and 7th graders from 2 school districts for one of the only 30 spots available.
