Sea World!!

Since Scott and I went ahead and bought an annual pass to Sea World we figured we'd take advantage of it and head out today to enjoy the park. We started the morning with a pancake breakfast at Chili's. Yes Chili's! They were doing a fund raiser for St. Jude's Children's Hospital. It was excellent, we even had to buy Nicholas his own plate because he devoured it (despite having eaten breakfast at home before we left!). Then off we went to Sea World. We enjoyed a rather entertaining pirate show staring a few sea lions, otters and a giant walrus. Followed by a walk through the shark tunnel, Nicholas loved watching the fish swimming all around us. And then his all time favorite event, the splash park!! This kid LOVES water! He was a bit hesitant at first being surrounded by older kids but once he got comfortable there was no stopping him. He was darting all over the area playing with the water and kids. I've never seen him so happy! He didn't want to leave. He'd occassionally wander out of the splash area so I'd say "Nicholas are you all done playing?" Which was always answered with a giant shake of the head no and a run back into the water! Once we finally coerced him out of the splash park we went onto a kiddie ride that scared me more than it did him! I hate heights!! We then moved on to a ride more my speed, the carousel. Nicholas was notably tired so we decided our day was done and home we went. It was a fun day and we can't wait to go back!!
