In line for the Jungle Cruise

Our tour guide for the Jungle Cruise picked Braden to help "drive" the boat!

Had to take a picture!

The end of our first day

SeaWorld was a hot but fun day. Along with the kids, this was Alan's first time at a SeaWorld. We were able to enjoy 3 of the shows, our favorite being the Dolphin Show (I'm trying to upload some video but it's having a hard time). We also saw the Shamu Show-Believe and the funny Sea Lion & Otter Show. Bailee, Braden & Alan got to get up close with the dolphins and feed them. (I stayed back with a sleeping baby) and we all fed the stingrays some shrimp, which was a little weird because there is a certain way to hold the shrimp in your fingers and then you put your hand in the water and wait for them to come get it. It was just kind of a weird feeling when they take the shrimp from you...freaked me out a little and I quickly pulled my hand out!

It didn't take long for Braden to sweat and smear his!

Shamu Show

Hurry Bailee, there's so much to see!

A little slanted but that's okay!

Sea Lion & Otter Show

Catching a few rides

2nd day at Disney!

Trying to wake our exhausted children for our last day

All ready for our last day of fun!

It's a Small World...it just isn't Disneyland/World if you don't ride this ride! It's still one of my favorite rides and Brikelle really enjoyed it too. We rode it twice just for her!

The "mean" stepmother and step-sisters. When I told Braden these were Cinderella's "mean" step-sisters and mother, he didn't want to go say hi to them...he didn't like the fact that they were "mean"!

Bailee's dream of meeting some of the princesses has come true...she was so excited to meet them! Braden was quite a hit with them too, he got kisses from all 3 princesses (which left kiss marks on his face!) And yes, he thinks that was just great!

Pluto was Brikelle's most Favorite! Anyone who knows Brikelle knows that she loves stuffed animals. So when we saw these 3 characters, she was in heaven! To her they were just ginormous walking stuffed animals! She kept running back to Pluto and had an absolute tantrum when we left the room. She kept running back towards the door and the only thing that calmed her down was to buy her her own Pluto stuffed animal. She knows how the system works!

This is the talking Buzz Lightyear you get to see while waiting in line for the ride

Woody & Jesse: We didn't make it in time to get a picture with Woody & Jesse which was a little disappointing for Braden, but I was able to snap this picture and Woody looked right at Braden and waved to him! That was enough to make Braden a happy guy!
