Spring Break

We had a credit at Southwest airlines that we had to use by June so we decided to take the kids to Sea World for Spring Break! It was soooo much fun. The girls loved every minute of it and the boys loved.....well, most of it.





The boys checking out the Polor Bears


Our hotel had a great Tropical Pool for the kids with a huge sand box. It was great, right across the street from Sea World, less than a mile from Mission Beach, and our balcony overlooked the marina. We fed seaguls from our room and they would catch it right in the air. They even ate the chicken bones....it was so gross, I watched as one ate the entire breast bone in one gulp! so discusting.


The second day was a little warmer and Nate, Shelbs, and Harlee went down Atlantis. Nate said Shelbi was pretty scared but Harlee was hilarious she laughed and screamed the entire way down, she absolutely loved it.


We didn't stay long, but we had a blast at the beach, Shelbi was the bravest, she went all the way in and the rest of us just got our feet wet. The girls love to let the waves chase them and the boys kept trying to race down to the water. The couple next to us kept laughing because as soon as I could get one situated the other would take off down there and this went on and on. They were like "There he goes again....oops there the other one goes"



I had to fight for a picture of us, it looks all calm, but in the background the boys are screaming, Harlee keeps trying to run in the picture and Shelbi is our freezing photographer!

Anyway, I'm so glad we got to go and now I need a vacation to recoup from our vacation:) ...yeah right!

Oh jealous. I love Sea World and vacations. We did the California thing last summer and it was super fun! Actually we bought two day Sea World tickets and only went one day. I need to see if they are expired or not...maybe another Sea World trip will be in the works! LOL.
