Sea World

We made a long fun weekend out of Aidan's birthday celebration! After his party we headed over to my brother's place to relax and spend some time with them and the rest of the family. He BBQ'd for us and then we spent the night to be ready in the morning to spend the day at Sea World! We've already gone this year and had the pass to go again all year long for free so we took advantage of that.

Here's Makayla with Bria, one of my brother's rottweilers. She's super nice and Makayla's favorite. She likes the girl doggie! Zeus the other Rot is still a puppy so much more hyper and wants to play and Bria is more mellow so that's why I think Makayla likes her better. She just chills and Mak can just pet her. Zeus is more of a licker and nudger for her to throw toys and play. My brother had some friends come over too for the BBQ and my parents also stayed so it was nice to just hang out & relax. My brother's friends had Vietnamese parents like ours so boy did they have so much in common to chat about. It was cute to listen to them reminisce about the old days and how things were because they brought over great DVD's for us to watch of Vietnam. So beautiful! We also had some super hot chili peppers that they brought from their garden and everyone was screaming how hot it was! That's rare since my parents eat SPICY! I didn't even try since it made my dad sweat because it was so HOT! They had a little boy that Makayla played with. Dillion was just a little bit younger and they had so much fun together!

Here we are at Sea World the next day! Woke up to an awesome home made breakfast by Uncle Binh.....is famous Ebelskivers! Oh and my sis-in-law Janai woke me up to work out at the YMCA too before going! So it was a busy morning alright!

Catching our first show, the Dophin encounter. Mylee really enjoyed it! But boy was it hot out! Good thing there was a slight breeze from time to time! I hope we get wet to cool off! I know Makayla wanted to sit in the splash zone so that's where we're at! Too bad we really didn't get wet. Still a little too far up I guess.

So we didn't get wet at the show but She's really getting wet in Elmo's World. We spent a lot of time here. It's a super cute area for the little one's. She had her suit on and ready to play! It was so nice too cool off! Mylee was going down for a nap in her stroller right about now so no getting wet for her!

Check out Makayla's little obstacle course run! She had a blast! Don't forget to press play. It's a video.

Mak & Elmo. She was hesitant at first and then changed her mind. She loved him!

Oh boy, was she happy to see these two girls! They were having a little parade and then Makayla wanted me to follow them. Good thing since they went right in for pictures and we were right there to be one of the firsts! Zoe and Abby Cadabby! She was in heaven!

Ernie & Bert were right next to the girls and she didn't want to see them but they somehow talked her into it and she even got that close to Ernie for him to hold her. She liked them after all. Great day in Elmo's World. Too bad Mylee was asleep that whole time!

The rest of the day was pretty relaxed. We had lunch and walked around and did whatever Makayla wanted. We didn't even see another show. So it was pretty mellow. She went and touched all the starfish and sea cucumbers in this area.

Mylee finally woke up and also wanted to touch the starfish! She was excited to see them! The we walked over to the Honu's (Sea Turtles in Hawaiian). Great day spent at Sea World for sure! I love it when we don't have to rush to see and do everything!
