Sea World 2012!!

We made a last minute decision last Tuesday to take the kids to Sea World for the weekend.  We asked Ryan's parents to go and they were in for the fun!! What a great weekend we all had!  Sage LOVES Shamu and sharks and everything about Sea World.  Here are some (ok, LOTS)  of pictures from the trip! 

They slept for a bit, but don't let this fool you, they were not angels the whole way there

Jumping on the bed for ten minutes when we first get to our hotel room, a tradition! :)

Checking out the view!

Our tour guide!

Fun at the Riverwalk!!!

And we are off to Sea World Saturday Morning!

"I don't know where we are but everyone else is excited!"

And we left Sunday morning after breakfast, Fathers Day.  

Look how innocent and perfect they look, this lasted all of about 20 seconds...

 What a fun quick trip!  Thanks Jean and Dave for coming with us.  We love to see smiles on our kiddos faces!  Thanks Sea World!!

Some Lost Pictures

I totally forgot that I had pictures of our zoo trip on my camera.  One of my best friends, Jennifer Flack, and her son Bennett and Mom met us at the zoo a couple weeks ago. We met my mom there too. Jen and I  always felt like our moms were a lot alike and we wanted them to meet!  It was kinda like a blind date!
We all had a great time even though we got to the zoo at 3 and found out they were closing at 4 for a private event.  We only had one hour to enjoy the animals but it turned out ok, it was REALLY HOT! And our moms did get along!  We knew they would!!

Sage was pouting here for some reason, who knows...

He was talking to Bennett!

Avery was terrified.  we had to sit on the bench once the ride started

Then we went back to my moms house to play while the traffic died down.

Fun Day with great friends!

More Popsicles!

All smiles!

I love how she looks at him.  Always watching, always mesmerized by her brother!

Cheers!

YUMMY!

Bouncing Party

We took Sage and Avery to Ashton and Reese's birthday part at Bouncing Bears last weekend.  Fun times! Somehow I didn't get one picture of the birthday boy.  :(

Avery and the birthday girl, Reese.  Reese is turning two but Avery outweighs her for sure!

wearing her princess crown she got at the party!

And Sage in his super hero mask and cape! He wore the cape and mask to Lupe Tortilla that night!

The kids napped for THREE hours after all that bouncing! Then we went to Lupe!

The kids got Popsicles at Lupe!  Avery's first, i think...

She looks a little disheveled here.  One shoe, crazy hair, dripping  Popsicles everywhere

Took his mask and cape off for his popsicle

still eating

Why we let her bring it in the car I have no idea...BAD idea!

What a fun Saturday! Great party Natalie and Casey.  Can't wait to meet your new baby any day now...

Flack School!

Every Tuesday we go to our fiends house, the Flacks, for a little "summer school." Jen's mom leads the kids in a little lesson followed by an activity, craft, games, ect.  Then its followed with some outside water fun and a snack.  We did this last year and loved it so much that we decided to do it again this year!  Jen and her mom do such a great job setting up and teaching!  Its a great way to get a little education in this summer!!  And its fun to get together with the other moms and get out of the house!

This week was numbers and counting!

We have a few little ones around too!

counting out pom poms to put on our number mat! 

Play time!!

Mimi's birthday!

My mom's birthday was last Sunday and after church we spent the whole day and night there!  Carly J and Tatum came and my cousins Lisa and Brian and their four kids.  My Aunt Cindy and Aunt Pam were there too!  I didn't take a lot of pictures but had fun at Mimi and Papas!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY

Happy Birthday Mom!

Tatum and Avery with their Daddies!

Isn't she ADORABLE!!!! Love me some Tatum!
