Sea World 2010

All loaded up and ready for some SEA WORLD!!

Jordan got so excited he fell asleep.

Caden (who never REALLY sleeps) was ready for some fun!



We checked in at the hotel and headed straight to Sea World.



Little Jordy was "aaah'ed" by the fish.

Amaya was an excellent tour guide.

We had planned to stay and catch the nighttime Shamu show but the rain was too much for these little ones and so we had to leave for the day.

The next morning we hit our (2nd)favorite breakfast spot: IHOP before heading back to Sea World.

Jordan was so excited that this time he couldn't sit still.

And that wasn't stressing Chase at all. Doesn't that smile look genuine?

You can't see them but that is the first roller coaster ride for Caden and the first for both Caden and Amaya to ride without an adult.

I could not stand the thought of playing in HOT sand when it was already a thousand degrees so I graciously decided to let Chase spend this special time with the kids while I stayed OUT of the sand pit.

It's like she doesn't even notice the heat. Sweet girl.

Caden too.

If my camera had been aimed a little more to the left it would have been a PERFECT shot of Amaya feeding the dolphin. Still, not too shabby.

Caden wanted to buy fish to feed the dolphins with his OWN money from his OWN wallet.

Having a blast and loving each other (for the moment).

Searching for a dolphin.

The Lost Lagoon in the water park section.

We tried to talk the child into heading over to a different more age-appropriate area so she could actually get her entire body wet. AND this is what she opted to do instead.

Jordan loved the water and the slide.

Jordan's first movie experience "Toy Story 3". He made it through half of the movie before Chase had to take him out but I blame the forty minutes of previews we had to endure before the movie even started. I think he would have made it through if we'd just been there for the movie part.

Where's Jordan???!!

THERE HE IS!

His favorite part of the trip: the hotel room closet.

We love Sea World and we LOVE San Antonio. We had a blast and are so blessed to have grandparents that want to send us on vacation. THANKS GRAM! And thanks Duke and Nana for the spending money for the kids.
