A fun day for me and the kids!

The kids and I decided to take a trip to San Diego to enjoy a day at Sea World!! It was so nice to get a break from the desert, ha!! We had a great time together although everything would have been so much better if Jason were here to join us in the fun. We made a weekend out of it by staying on MCAS Miramar. We stayed in a very nice suite for a very nice price!! One of the perks of being in the military, haha! After we were all settled into our room we took off to Sea World. The kids were super excited about seeing Shamu and also the dolphins. Caitlyn didn't really know what to expect but she was excited because her brother was excited!!

The first thing we got to see was the dolphins. They were swimming around in their wading pool and the kids got to see them jump in and out of the water. They were really having fun watching that. I think we sat there for almost 20 minutes!!

After seeing the dolphins we decided to go and eat some lunch. Right across from where the dolphins were we saw a Pizza and Pasta place...yay...our favorite!! Good food, BAD prices but what else can you expect at a theme park?!?! Here is a picture of our $30.00 lunch, haha!!


So after we got done eating we went back to feed the dolphins. Sorry to say I was not able to get pictures of that because I was the one feeding the dolphins and I was the one with the camera, ha!! The kids enjoyed watching me feed them though. After that we went to see the bat-rays. Those were pretty cool. We decided to feed those as well and that was just weird!! They literally suck the fish off your hand! I could not get Cory to feed one but after minutes of pushing him to touch one he finally did....

After that we decided to get a seat at the Shamu show before it got too crowded. We were in the "soak zone" but fortunately did not get wet!! The kids really enjoyed the show. They did a salute to all the military and had everyone stand up who is in or has a family member in and so we stood up for Jason and that made me sad but it also made me feel proud!! I just wish he was the one to stand up so everyone else could see one of the world finest marines!!!

On the way out of the Shamu show Cory wanted to see the Starfish. To my surprise he actually picked one up and held it!!













Here are just a few random pictures from throughout the park. We really enjoyed ourselves!

A big thank you to Sea World for giving the military families an opportunity to visit your parks free of charge. This is something our family enjoys doing every year and we plan to again next year when daddy is able to come with us!! We had such a blast!!

After our day at Sea World we went back to our room at Miramar. I decided to take some pictures of our room because I was so impressed!!!! Little things excite me, hahaha!!

Below is a picture of our living room area. It also had a dining room in it with a table big enough for the three of us!

This was our kitchenette. It was great finally staying somewhere that Caitlyn could have some warm milk in the morning!! She was happy about that. Across from this was our bathroom which was huge!!

This was our bedroom. It had a really comfy queen size bed and a TV. So I was able to watch what I wanted in here while the kids watched TV in the living room. It also had a desk/office area where I left a "semper fi thank you" haha!! All three of us slept on the bed until Caitlyn took over my side then I moved her to the floor with blankets and then it was just Cory and I. We all slept great and I felt safe even though Jason was not there. Being on a military base has that affect!




Here is Cory and Caitlyn asleep together in the bed. This was in the middle of the night when I was woke up because I had no room, ha! How sweet is that?!?! They had such a long day! I love my little angels!










THE END!!!!
