Nate found a small aquarium that you raise aquasaurs at the thrift store. It was a kit with the eggs and you put the eggs in water and hope that these little dinosaur fish hatch. The first half of the eggs didn't work at all and so we put the second batch of eggs in and we got lucky. The first one we called lucky but he only got so big before he died and he wasn't lucky anymore. Then we got three to hatch- Ted, Steve, and Decoratove (the one that Paige named). Steve didn't last very long but Ted and Decoratove started to thrive. Decoratove did last the longest though and was a fun little pet to have for about three to four months. It was kind of cool to watch him swim around and he had hundreds of legs and it was cool to watch them all move when he would swim upside down. Paige loved this little dinosaur fish and he lived as long as expected maybe a little longer but soon the day came that Decoratove passed away.
We decided to have a little funeral service for him.
Paige made a coffin for him.
Then we went to Dale and Margaret's house to bury him in the forest.
She wasn't too sad about it but enjoyed doing the funeral service for him.
Her spelling of Decoratove and the coffin lid that we taped on.
Blowing him one last kiss before burying him.
Sad but cute little face.
Marking his headstone.
Goodbye Decoratove! Thanks for being such a fun pet.
