Just like his mom, Jack was eating his way thru Sea World:

Lunch was red velvet cake:

Jack and I on the rapids and we got soaked!   That was a mistake…it was colder than it looked.

Sea World Part 5…

Aya and I really like the funnel cake at Sea World so we stopped to get some and guess who ended up eating most of it?? ? Yup the kids!!  They loved the strawberries, cream and funnel cake:

Then we rode Shamu:

At dinner Stacy drew a picture of me and Jack.  I have the bigger head:

Sadly, Jack draws about the same skill level as Stacy!

Sea World Part 4…

Since it was Stacy’s birthday weekend, Stacy could get anything she wanted…not that she knew that…but the sky is the limit for her, so we got her face painted:

The lady was really good and fast:

We couldn’t leave Jack out and he got a glittler tattoo of a t-rex:

Sea World Part 3…

The real FUN for Stacy started when the shows started!!  Stacy loves animals and when she saw Shamu she was in 7th heaven:

Stacy was cheering and just staring at the killer whales:

Shamu was great:

You would think Shamu would be Stacy’s favorite but they had this ‘pet’ show at Sea World.  Dogs, Cats, Pigs and Birds all did tricks.  Stacy LOVED it:
wk156_sea_world43
The Sea Lion show is still my favorite but there is a lot of talking and jokes in the show and not as much ‘action’ so Stacy didn’t like it as much:
wk156_sea_world64
They had a dolphin and trapeze show that was kinda ‘gay’ but it was princess themed, so Stacy loved it:

Stacy had so much fun watching the animals at Sea World.   It just amazes me because I absolutely HATE animals so to see someone so happy watching animals…it is freaky to me.

Sea World Part 2…

We got to Sea World earlier than expected, it was 90 minutes door to door, so with a few hours to spare before the first show we went on a few rides:

Stacy was having a lot of fun on the rides:

Sea World Part 1…

As part of Stacy’s birthday celebration we headed to San Diego for the weekend.  First stop Sea World!

Stacy was afraid of the big penguin at first and wouldn’t go near it:

By the end of the day, Stacy was good with the costumed characters:

Puzzle…

Stacy really enjoys puzzles.  She is patient:

Stacy didn’t want me to take video or pictures of her doing the puzzle:

wk155_goodnight_moon3

But I took them anyway as she was progressing thru the puzzle:

wk155_goodnight_moon6

Stacy did the puzzle all by herself:

Viola!  All done:

Laker Fan-fest Part 1…

For all the Laker fans who buy season tickets on their American Express card, the Lakers have a fan-fest day where it is the ONLY day where they allow fans to watch a game day shoot around and ask and answer questions.   One of the dads on Jack’s basketball team invited us to go so I took Stacy and Jack:

laker_fan_fest2

First there was Q&A with assistant coach Bill Berka, Stu Lantz and Mitch Kupchak:

laker_fan_fest_bill_berka_stu_lance_mitch_kupchak2

Let me just say Mike D’antoni does NOT work on any defense!  When we went the Lakers were struggling on defense and I kid you not they WALKED thru their defense for 5 minutes.  They didn’t even do it right and then they moved on to lame shooting drills.
