Sea World!!

We had a whole lot of fun at Sea World San Antonio! The boys (and their parents!) were amazed at all the cool things to do and see. Even Uncle Burke and Mimi joined in the fun!!! We got to feed and pet the dolphins, see sharks, get splashed by Shamu, ride roller coasters, watch shows, and a lot more! The pictures say it best so here goes...

 
Here the boys are feeding dolphins. The funny story of this event was that Daddy was so into feeding them that no one else in the family got to experience it the first time around!

Uncle Burke and Chase after braving the cold waters of Shamu. The crowd was really large so we got separated and Uncle Burke and Chase (the very kid who was NOT going to enjoy getting splashed) found a seat in the....SPLASH ZONE! As soon as it happened we saw them stand up and make their way out of the seats - Chase in tears and rather wet with salt, cold whale water! And what did this naturally do?? Peak the curiosity and desire for big brother to return and get splashed :)

 
The best buddies!

Roller Coasters...
 

Chaser was a brave boy and went on his first little Shamu roller coaster. He was holding on pretty tight but did smile by the end!

 

And thanks to Reece's tallness - he passed the height restrictions and was able to go on the Journey to Atlantis. He was really brave and although I tried to help him see the reality - it is really high! - he was persistent and went on it twice. Once with his Daddy and once with me. I think the whole idea of getting splashed made the difference for him. He laughed so hard and was so proud of himself!

Mommy and Pierce having fun!

 
We were so glad Mimi shared the day with us!

 
The older boys had fun at the water splash park...

 
...even though the water was soooooo cold.

 

...while little Pierce caught a nap!

We had a super fun time together at Sea World...and will be back to visit again someday!
