Sea World!!

Friday we headed out to San Diego for a great day at Sea World! Along the way we picked up a few stragglers. Jacquie and Ellie! My niece Ellie is 3 1/2, this was her first time to Sea World so I was really excited to see how much she would love all the animals. This was Alana's 2nd time, she went last year when she was just 2 weeks old. I was so excited that this year she would be walking all around and exploring on her own!

Alana and Ellie loved exploring and walking up to glass.

We saw lots of shows all day. The girls were pretty patient to sit through them all.

There was a lot of "walking around" time for Alana.

Alana decided she wants to run instead of walk now. She loves being off on her own in a crowd of people.

Ellie loves to hug Alana, it's too cute!

Daddy and Alana watching the Sesame Water Show.

Ellie was such a good girl all day considering she didn't have a nap, she did great! I LOVE this picture of Ellie! My new favorite!

Gotta love these 2 girls smiles!!

I can never get the 2 of them to smile and look at the camera at once. Near impossible!

Alana loved to touch the cold water where the Starfish were in! Ellie was showing her how to pick them up.

A great Mommy and Ellie day! Thank you Aunt Julie and Grandma Pat for watching Lexie.

We made sure to stay until night time because Sea World has some cool night time shows. This is a picture of the Stadium at "Shamu Rocks". It was like a concert. They had some pretty cool music. (And some LAME gutairist and dancers)

But Shamu and his buds did some pretty cool tricks, it was a really great show. Then we stayed seated for the fire works show which was pretty cool, even though both girls were passed out by then.

We had a really great day! Took us FOREVR to get out of there, but it was all worth it! See you again next year Shamu!
