Splash Zone...

As frizzy hair, brace face middle school girls, Kimme and I dreamed of being whale trainers. Our rooms were decked out in dolphins, we would perform shamu shows in the wading pool, and we wanted matching flipper tattoos on our ankles as soon as we turned 18 (we are both thanking our lucky stars that never came to fruition). So when we arrived at Sea World over the weekend we were like two kids in a candy store...

As you can see the park was packed (sarcasm noted;) I am loving that school is back in session for our play days.

All the new shows were amazing. It was like a Sea World cirque du soleil.

Flipper is an expensive date. His breakfast cost us three times more than mine:)

James is a big kid now

The boys watched the Shamu show in the splash zone.
To put a check on our bucket list, we paid the big bucks to swim with Belugas.

Ha Ha. Wet suits make me look like a 12 year old boy.
If only our twelve year old selves could have seen our fabulous day. All the middle school mean girls wouldn't have mattered as much. So note to self...If things aren't going your way, focus on future days with your boys, bff, and belugas and everything will be brighter:)

And one of the best posts ever--because I remember so well your and Kimme's Shamu yearnings. You don't look like a boy in a wet suit--you look like Scuba Barbie--the one that never came out of the box. Seeing the two of you together with your beautiful children, handsome hubbies and twinner westsuits makes this Mommy heart sing!

I keep coming back to this post like a bag of peanuts M&M's. The colors are a treat for my eyes. The pictures of Shamu needs to be in a travel brochure. It makes me smile each time I look at it!
