First Stop...Sea World








My kids love love love Sea World!! It rained pretty much all day the day that we went, but they didn't care...They were way too excited about all of the fun things to see! We got to have breakfast with the Sesame Street characters and that was so fun! The kids thought it was great to see them and dance and get pictures with them. There was a 4D movie of the characters(Yes, 4D. They actually spray water on you and air bursts around, etc.), and Conley loved that! I held my 3D glasses on him and he sat with them on the whold time. It was fun to watch Logan and Tayvi reach for objects as they POPPED out from the screen! Logan was really excited to see the flamingos. (Funny, I couldn't get Doug away from them 6 years ago when we went there on our Honeymoon!!) Like Father, Like Son! :) Tayvi loved getting splashed! That's the one thing she tells eveyone about it. She'll say, "we saw the animals, and we got SPLASHED!" I just enjoyed seeing all of the excitement in their eyes! I love being a MOM!!!

VACATION!!



We just recently went on vacation to San Diego and had an absolute BLAST!! These are pics of the kids on the way there! They were troopers! We drove, and weren't quite sure how the kids would do being in the car so long, but it wasn't bad! We got to Barstow our first night around 2:30 a.m. and the kids slept most of the way...of course there were a few potty breaks along the way!

May 20th...What a Day!!



















WOW!! Tayvi Rae turned three! She was so sweet that morning while opening gifts! She was just excited about everything! She loved having her friends over for her "Do do Dora" party! Notice the cups that she and Logan decorated themselves! There was not one thing "Dora" to be found for parties! We had a ball with her friends making crowns, and even though the sprinklers came on in the middle of the party...(can you believe that) they all had a great time! Another fun thing for Tayvi is that she shares her birthday with her "Tappin'" Grandma, LaRae. She just loves that! Later that evening our Logan boy graduated from Pre-School! He has had the best year at Miss Sandra's Pre-School! He was pretty upset (as you can see). It's a good thing he has a little sister who will go comfort him in the middle of his graduation! :) Despite the sadness he felt about leaving Sandra, he is very excited to be going to Kindergarten in the fall! He asks quite often how many more days until he can go! Well, Conley didn't want to be left out that day, so he decided that it would be a good day to start sitting up on his own. He sits for awhile, and then topples over, but he's getting the hang of it! Well, it was quite the day! We all had a fun time being a part of all these "milestones." Life is GREAT!!
