San Diego-Part 2

In addition to the Natural History Museum, the kids really wanted to go to SeaWorld. Keira asked for 5 days straight if she could pet a dolphin!

Tyler loves sea turtles. This turtle watched Ty as Ty watched him!


This fish was huge and while he didn't move much, it looks like he is staring at Keira (which she thought was funny!).


Keira finally got to pet a dolphin! This was probably Ty's 4th time feeding the dolphins but he had just as much fun as Keira. I have to admit, I loved it too (dolphins are one of my favorite animals).


Brian and Tyler ended the day on the water slide! The temp. was getting cooler and the water was cold so I wasn't too sure how the ride would go....



But they had fun!

San Diego-Part 1

Brian booked a three day kayak fishing trip in San Diego and the kids and I tagged along and the family made it a week vacation! While the weather was much cooler than Gilbert, we had a great time and kept busy!

Tyler wanted to go to the Natural History Museum for his birthday.

Keira on a manatee!

Tyler almost fell backward on this mammoth display when I was getting ready to take this picture! I am SO glad he didn't!!!




As always...we head to the beach! This time Ty tried his hand a boggie boarding with my dad! He did pretty well given the water was cold!!!


Keira opted to build a sand castle!



We had a great time!

Happy 6th Birthday, Tyler!

Tyler is 6 and had several parties to celebrate! We were in San Diego for Ty's actual bday so we celebrated with my parents and brother with a dinosaur Oreo ice cream cake. Ty requested spaghetti for dinner & my brother came through and made VERY yummy spaghetti and meatballs!

Our good friends, the Wenk's, moved to California so we made a quick trip up to see them and their beautiful new house!



Here is Keira, Abby, Libby, and Tyler.




After lunch we had yummy cupcakes!

This year Tyler really had a hard time with his birthday being in the summer. He saw most of his class celebrate their bdays during school and in class they got to pick from the treasure chest. So, before school let out we brought in cupcakes to Ty's class and he got to pick from the treasure chest. However, his bday experience would not be complete without a party with his friends from school. Since we were in California the week before, we didn't want to come home to a party at the house so we called up Bounce U and were very happy with the event!




Being summer, a lot of school friends were not able to come but his two best friends came which made everything okay!



HAPPY 6TH BIRTHDAY, TYLER! WE LOVE YOU!
