Yay, Sea World!

We took our first 'family of four' road trip this past weekend! We joined our very good friends, the Dunsmores, to help them celebrate RoRo's big 2nd birthday with a big day at Sea World! We had fabulous weather (minus the freezing cold wind storm in the parking lot), extremely well behaved children (despite them not having a nap), and very few hiccups along the way (except of course for Jason forgetting to pack his own clothes)! Thanks to Sarah, Shawn, and Roanin for a fantastic weekend full of great memories and wonderful friendship!


A quick stop for diaper changes and bluebonnet pics...nothing like multi-tasking!


What a handsome and lovable group!

Jason and Jack enjoying the Riverwalk



Hayes and I enjoying the boat ride and more than a few fingers

RoRo and Jack taking in the sights

What a little cutie pie!

Sarah and I decide to get a little festive even though the guys don't seem to understand why we would waste 7$ on such a ridiculous getup. Whatever.


The obligatory jammies pic...they just look too cute and cuddly to pass up!


Jack fuels up on some cantaloupe before hitting the Sea World pavement...



During the brief, but treacherous windstorm!



A quick pic before heading in to check out the spooky sharks. Jack kept reminding us "don't ever touch them."


Sea World is so awesome that it even had a race car! Jack was very pumped and walked all around it, checking out every detail...

Most of the boys (minus Hayesee and Baby #2 for the Dunsmores)


The money shot! And yes, I did chase him down if you were wondering (walking whales are faster than you think). Unfortunately, Jack was too busy counting his teeth to look at the camera.

Did I mention yay for Sea World?

A birthday hug for RoRo!


Taking a break outside the alligator pit. Jack also reminded us to not ever touch these bad boys either. Smart boy we've got here!


Time for an ice cream picnic! Yum!


Hayes is happy even without his share of ice cream...


With a full belly, it's time for a little bit of roughhousing! Duh.


The darling Dunsmores

Jack is having a blast feeding the sea lions

Why do little boys look so cute from the back? Could it be because we have trained ourselves to think that since it is so hard to get them to look at the camera? : )


Waiting for the grand finale of dolphin feeding! What a perfect day!

Wow looks like a great trip!! I can totally see me in one of those leis - I would need the pink one, though! Jack does seem to be freaked out by the fake sharks teeth!!

Love,
