Sea World Orlando

We all wished we had found this ride area sooner. We only had like an hour and there was a ton to do. The kids had a blast!

This was the kids favorite ride. Shamu roller coaster is pretty cool.

I want to just smooch those cheeks!!

Austin climbing the big stairs to play. What a big boy!

This ride went up to the top then bounced up and down. The kids loved it!!!

 Such a goof!

 Ethan caught the "bug" Grandma and Papa had:(

 Olivia was crazy, doing flips...

 Victoria jumping around

 Jett, Andrea, Jeff, Victoria and Olivia riding the water coaster. Ethan was so sad he wasn't tall enough. Poor kid.

 Gator pond

The dolphin pool had a current and all the dolphins were riding the waves in sync. It was pretty cool.

 Petting the bat rays.

 The dolphin show

 Austin loves him some strawberries! We were on the Sea World "cruise". Which is a pay once eat all day kind of thing. It was a lot of fun and so yummy!

We were so glad that the one rainy day we were already planning on Sea World. We all walked around with rain slickers on and it was perfect.

 Ethan, with his wand in hand, is ready for anything. Bring it on Voldemort!

 Hogwarts

 The whole area was super detailed, I loved the owls. We had lunch in the Three Broomsticks. We tried butter beer, pumpkin juice. So delicious and super fun!

 It was by far the most crowed area all day!

I can't believe these are all the pictures I took that day. We had so much fun I must have missed the picture taking part. Well, we had a ton of fun all day and it was awesome!

Feb 2011 at Grandma's

 Opening presents from Aunt Jessica!

 My birthday dinner at Texas Roadhouse with Grandma and Papa Pack

 Austin knows better then to get out of bed and come find me, so he hid around the corner from where we were playing games and fell asleep behind the chair.

 Playing "rock band" at McDonald's.

 I want to eat...NOW!

 The McDonald's Gang

 Papa Craig brought donuts home. Yummy!!!!

 Papa Pack takes good care of me on Valentines day. Thanks!

This is what I always come home to when I leave Jeff for vacations. Sick baby, sick!!

San Diego trip Feb 2011

 Baby cheetah at the Wild Safari Park. Ethan LOVED this cheetah and we watched it for hours.

 Austin was a little afraid of the up and down horses and insisted I hold his fingers during the entire ride.

 Ethan loved the ride.

This is some rare animal that I absolutely can not remember the name of. Ask Aunt Chandra, she might remember.

Belated Christmas and San Diego Vacay with the Schuddes!

 The reason we call the Bumbo "poop chair". It works every time;)

 Opening presents with the Schuddes.

 Jason loved the shows at Sea World! Just hanging out with Aunt Tara.

 Ryan in his usual role "Daddy" to all kids around. What a good guy!

 Roasting biscuits on an open fire at the Mormon Battalion festival.

 Feeding the Bat rays at Sea World. I can't believe Ethan was willing and excited to touch the dead fish. What a brave boy!

 Ethan got to participate in the tour of Old Town.

Panning for gold in Old Town!
