Bret and Sea World

Bret had one long weekend during his training because of a holiday so the kids and I flew out to Texas to keep him company during that time. It had been 2 months since we had seen him. The time there went by way to fast but we had a really good time! Most of the time we just hung out as a family but one of the days we went to Sea World. Bret was only about 30 min away from it and we got in free because of being in the military. We had soooo much fun at Sea world! It was just so good to be back together as a family for a little bit. It was pretty hard to leave again though knowing we still had a month to  go. I forgot my camera so I didn't take a lot of pics. I mostly just took some at Sea World with Bret's phone. 

The kids were so excited to see Bret. Bret had classes still the first day we were there so the kids and I just hung out at the hotel and went swimming.

Starting out a great day with Shamu.

We payed the womping $6 to feed and touch the dolphins. It was really awesome! Cooper wouldn't feed or touch them though.

Lynndon and I did it though!

Ya it was pretty fun!

The first of three shows that we went to. Can you see the dolphin in the air? Lynndon did not want to leave after the show. Both kids loved it.

They both had a really good time I promise. Lynndon had just fallin before the pic so she wasn't to happy at the moment and it was hot out.

Shamu, the second show of our day. I did not get a pic of him in the air so all I have is splashing.

After the Shamu show.

Its kind of hard to tell in the pic but we got soaked during the shamu show. Cooper cried and Lynndon was just startled a little.

They had a little Sesame street area for kids.

Elmo and some of his friends performed.

The kids loved this also.

Riding one of the kid rides. Bret and the kids are in the green egg on the left.

Looking at sea lions. Lynndon is in the window that is in the white wall with Bret leaning on it.

The last show of the day. It is awesome what some of these animals can do.

Side story: At the airport to fly home I met 2 other ladies that came out to visit their hubbies also during the long weekend. It made me not feel so bad about our situation when the 1 lady told me that it had been 4 months since they had seen her hubby and the kids their dad. Also during that 4 months she had a baby. So on the trip her hubby got to meet his 2 month old baby! They also didn't get to talk as much as Bret and I got to. She had 2 more months to go still after that! It was good to sit and talk to her. I found out also that she is LDS.
