A big splash!!

Well, we couldn't end the summer without a big splash!! Jaime and I took the kids one more time to Sea World this week. We stayed at our cousin Mary Lou's house- she was a wonderful hostess! We arrived late Tues night and got tucked right in! Our day started early with pancakes and bacon that ML made us. Then off to Shamu world!
Straight to the water park, Nicholas and Jaime dove straight into the wave pool! Nicholas loves this part and the waves are only active for 8minutes! Gabriel and I just sunbathe in the kiddie area waiting for Nick & Jaime to finish. Then Jaime and I tried our best to get Nicholas to go down a waterslide...with much hesitation, he finally tried the big Sidewinder! This was a ride on a tube that holds two people. So, Jaime and Nick went on the ride and from then on, Nicholas was sliding down every water slide he could get on!!
We were really proud of him for trying new things! You could tell he was proud of himself too! Even Gabriel went down the slide (a much smaller one) sitting on Jaime's lap- boy, he thought he was "hot" stuff!
Two days of splashing around and walking the park, we are now back and getting geared up for school. I guess its "see you later hamu" until next summer!
