Being all Crafty

Look at me being all crafty! I have seen these chicken wire frames and loved them. I decided to make one once i realized that to buy it premade was about $70. I made it for half. Now i have a great place for the girls to hang their art/school work.DSCF1917

SEA WORLD

We took the girls to Sea World in April for a vacation. The weather was perfect and the girls did great on the trip ride over. Tessa only asked “are we there yet” a dozen or so times.

Okay so things wee going great… playing in the pool, dinner, went to play at the park by our hotel….and This little girl reached and missed the monkey bars. She came up crying with an arm the didn’t look right or feel right. We rushed her to the nearest urgent care and sure enough she fractured her arm. The doctor splinted it and said she would be good until we got home. She was so brave! She hardly cried and never really complained about it the whole time.

Sea World was great! The rides were fun and the dolphin and shamu show were amazing. The girls got to touch a dolphin so the trip was a success! My parents came with us.

IMG_0126 IMG_0192Our seats for the shamu show were awesome! We sat up high but not high enough and we got wet when the shamu splashed. Mallory loved it! Tessa did like getting wet again because she was just drying up from the shipwreck rapid ride where we really got wet.

yes, Mallory does have a bag on her arm so she can play in the water but not get her arm wet.

The Beach was so fun and the girls LOVED going out in the ocean. Next time we could have totally done all day there but not this time with Mallory’s arm.
