San Diego Trip: Part 1 - Sea World

We all flew to San Diego a day or two early so that we could go to Sea World together before J.R. and Debbie's wedding.  Here is Ray checking out the whales.
Ready for the Shamu show.
The kids wanted to sit up close and get wet, but the adults opted to not sit with them so we could stay dry.
Some of the little kids were not too happy after the show when they were soaking wet!  I guess they didn't realize just HOW wet they would get!
Ryon and Cole
Ray loved touching the starfish.  He wasn't really supposed to take it out of the water, but we quickly put it back (and we got a cute picture!).  :)
Me and Ray exploring Sea World just 6 weeks after major surgery and the most traumatic day of my life.  I was still physically sore, but thank goodness for pain medication!  It is amazing how much faster you can heal physically than emotionally.
My sister-in-law, Nichole, and Cole.  I am so blessed to have this amazing lady in my life!
Cole and Ray
J.R. has quickly adapted to the role of "Daddy J.R".
Dyllon, Coleton, and Tylor on one of the rides.
It was only in the 70s, but the kids thought it was warm enough to get wet (again) since their clothes had partially dried from earlier in the day.  :)
Meeting Elmo was the highlight of the trip for Jaymon.  You have never seen a 4-year-old so excited waiting in line!  He LOVED this!
Jaymon even got Elmo's autograph!


Journey to Atlantis was the favorite ride for most of the kids, except for my nephew, Grant, who said, "This ride is DANGEROUS!".  :)
