Sea World

My brother, Clayton, wanted to go to Sea World with his family this summer. The rest of us were quick to jump on board with our families as well (minus my older brother who lives in The Netherlands and my parents who were visiting them at the time). It was great fun!
Day 1: Sea World
Caleb and Carter in front of the Sea World fountain

Alligator Alley
(look hard for the alligators)

 Looking at dolphins

Shamu Express
I snapped the picture just a second too soon to catch Caleb, Dallin, and Carter riding this roller coaster together.

They have a Sesame Street show. We snapped a picture with Telly.

Bryson was a super great sport!

Most of the time he looked like this though: bored!

Enjoying the water area


Bryson wasn't feeling 100% on the trip. He had some diarrhea that got on his outfit, and Mommy didn't pack a spare outfit. So for the last hour of the day, we were "white trash" with a naked baby.

Leaving Sea World on the first day

We were able to rotate guys/girls watching babies so that the adults could ride all the roller coasters. We were fortunate that the roller coaster lines were 10 minutes or less.

The kids playing at the house we all rented together.

Day 2: Aquatica
It's kind of hard to take pictures at a water park. Here are a few I snapped:

Again, Bryson was a good sport. He loved sitting in the water and splashing though.

Caleb playing in the sand

Caleb and Dallin were a bit obsessed with the wave pool

Carter and Gavin taking a snack break

Again we were able to tag team so that all the adults got to ride the water slides. Caleb and Dallin were tall enough to do quite a few of the slides as well. There was one tube ride that Carter was tall enough to ride where you went underground to see some sting rays. Great fun!

Day 3: Tubing on a river
Too tricky to bring a camera as I was holding Bryson on my lap the whole time. At the end of the river ride, there are some water falls that you can tube down. Carter was very brave and did it by himself 3 times!

We ended up getting a season pass to Sea World, so we're excited to go back in a few months!

That looks like so much fun Haley! I know moms are supposed to savor every stage but I'm seriously excited for mine to be old enough that they have sufficient appreciation for things like Seaworld so I can justify the cost. :-) And I can't count the number of times my kids have been the white trash baby - naked in public - because I always think, oh we'll just be out for a couple of hours, I don't need an extra set of clothes. :-)
