Quick Trip to San Diego Temple

So we had a few hours before bedtime and didn't exactly want to sit in the hotel room with 3 very busy children, so we went to the San Diego Temple. I had only seen it passing on the freeway, but when we pulled up to it, it was seriously breathtaking. All of us were in Aw, it was a super cool sidetrip.

Landon and Ella and the Angel Moroni
And of course stealing a couple flowers never hurts.

Our First Trip to Sea World


This year Wayne really wanted to go to Sea World with the family. It was a bit of a sacrifice for me because I am a huge Disneyland fan, but I decided it would probably be good for the family to do something else....I guess. As you can see on the childrens faces, they absolutely loved it and after adjusting for the first day and overcoming not knowing where everything is...I loved it too.


Wayne with Shamu
Ella and Landon with Shamu
Ella at the Dolphin Show
Landon feeding the Sea Lions, this was his favorite part of Sea World.
Chase watching the Beluga Whales, one of my favorites too.
Us on the Sea Star Spin, and Ella's favorite ride
Wayne and Landon on Shipwreck Rapids, poor Landon went twice, with me also and the kid was dripping from head to toe.
Thanks Dad, for suggesting a new place every once in a while!

Belated Easter Egg Hunt

Well it was a little late in the game but we did finally have our Easter with my family, the kids all love doing the egg hunt together and this year we had a ton of eggs to find!

Kensley, Ella, and Kayley

Crash


Well it finally happened, Chase had his first accident. Landon was carrying him at Grandma's house and tripped and Chase's face hit the tile hard:( but he was a trooper and sucked on some Popsicle and was fine, the inside just looked like hamburger and he could only half smile for a few days. Poor Chasey.
