We recently went to Sea World in San Diego. We took all the boys, except Jonah. He doesn't like being in the car and wouldn't have had much fun anyway. Jessi watched him instead and he and Gwen had a blast together. Here are a few pictures from our exciting trip....
Our kids are really into the "slug bug" game, so when we saw this one, we had to get a picture with it! Don't you love how I am so washed out in the picture because of the white, reflective skin that I have. "A talent that I always have possesed!" What is that quote from?
So, Wilson just stood in the splash zone and let every single boat splash him. He had a blast!
Tyson and the Walrus! He is waaaaayyyy into sea animals and reads all kinds of books about them.
He was teaching us what some of the animals names were before we got to the signs.
Like this one...he said, "Mom, that's a commerson dolphin!" Sure enough, it was.
We went through the fun shark tunnel.
Here the boys got to touch bat rays. The felt really slippery. That was fun!
Lucas with the starfish and sea urchins. They don't do much, but it was neat.
Of course, we had to see the famous Shamu! That was so fun and my favorite part of the day. We were in the splash zone for that and got pretty wet.
Lucas was Alvin from Alvin and the Chipmunks.
At our ward party...Cleopatra, Sonic (no one knew what he was, they all guessed Teletubbies, or trolls) and the Doctor. Someone asked if Aaron was Dr. Cullen, no he wasn't but he's hot enough to be!!!
We had a great Halloween!
They rode the "Journey to Atlantis" ride over and over because there was no line. They were soaked. Wilson and I couldn't ride it. He was too short and I'm prego.

We told Gavin that we got him a blind date for his birthday and then gave him the cake. Funny? Maybe you had to be there.
My Mom requested a swedish nut cake, a recipe from her friend. Not exciting to look at, but it was yummy!
I think Jonah has an obsession with my laundry room! He's gotten into several thing in there lately. Yesterday, he poured out my whole, almost brand new, container of Costco sized Downey fabric softener onto the floor. I started cleaning it up before I thought to take the picture. I think I'll keep the door closed for now on. (Side note: Fabric softener is really hard to clean up. It's really really slippery like oil and once soaked into a towel, doesn't come out easily)
