Summertime, Summertime!!!!!

It was a good one and ended way too soon.

This year we bought Sea World passes.  So fun.

Baking in the sun!!!!!  Never again.  We will sit in the last row to be in the shade to watch the sea lion show.

The new Antarctic edition to Sea World.  Still haven't seen the penguins because the lines are too long.  We went with Beth, Cody, Ali, Pepper, Morgan, and Gramma.

Kate upset that Jane got a turn

Alice on the merry go round

Morgan, Jane, Pepper, Alice, Cody, and Ali

Kate patiently waiting her turn (this time)

Kate, Alice, and Gramma on the spinning ride.  Thankfully Gramma filled in where I couldn't because I was pregnant.

I absolutely love to watch the dolphin swim underwater.  And I love the lighting in these pictures.



After everyone else left, the girls and I watched the dolphins a little longer, had some ice cream, and played with the toys in the gift shop.

Kate got sick, and then Jane and Alice, but they recovered quickly.  Katie asleep on Gramma's floor.
