Blue tounges

Just a quick fun pic.
Our Bishop at church gives all the kids candy after church. Both my kids picked blue. They were so proud of their blue tounges. Arn't they the sweetest?

Storm Damage, Baseball, Ikea and Sea World.

A LOT to catch up on.

First of all we had Tropical Storm Fay. The problem with this storm is that it stayed over us for an entire day. So we had crap weather for over two days. We lost power for more than one day too. It sucked. It's HOT here with no power. Anyhow this is our damage: See this tree fell in our neighbor's yard and the roots are up under our fence. POOP! It could be ages before she gets that tree cut up and hauled away. It's like 20+ feet, we simply cannot do it for her, we did check. So we can't put up the new fence until that's done. We did pull all this down and cut it into pieces that they can take away and went to Lowes and got the crap for a new fence. So whenever that tree leaves we can get the job done.
We went to baseball on Tuesday. Here are pics:



Yesterday we went to Sea World. Our kids slept in so we did too. That ment we wanted to eat lunch in Orlando before going into the park. We got off the highway in Orlando. We saw McDonalds, A chicken place, but we wanted something different. Then we drove by a little side street, Brian said, "what's down there" I turned and saw... AN IKEA!!!! And of course Ikea has food. So we went because Brian loves me so much! Ikea sells fabric! Yummy fabric. I bought all this:

Then we went into Sea World. It was wicked hot. Just crazy super hot. We had a good time though. These pics are from the Shamu show. did you know that Ethan is CRAZY for killer whales? He is! He LOVES them. Um.. he really was happy, it's just so stinking hot. And yes, we drank gallons of water.
My guys enjoying the show.
Here they are getting off a ride in Shamu's Happy Harbor.
And finally look at this cool mail Brian got! He sent the card to this football guy and the guy sent back this nice letter, the card signed and a little pin. That's so cool!

Down South

Last week I took the boys down to my mom's house for a few days then to my dad's. I wanted to spend time with my mom. Also she has been finding all sorts of great stuff at thrift stores so I had to check hers out. I filled my trunk with thrift finds!

We had a total blast at this park in Jensen Beach. By the way Jensen Beach is the adorable little beach town I grew up in. This park was no there then though. Anyhow it has this interactive fountain.

Me, my one foot and my two boys.
There is a beach at the park too.
With a horseshoe crab. *He's cute*
Mom again.
After a few days of mom's we went to my dad's. We went to a turtle rescue place, it was totally cool. They had lots of baby sea turtles. They have a cooler out front that you can put them in if you find one on the beach looking all lost. They have big turtles too, if someone finds one with it's fin caught in a net or that has swallowed a hook, they have it there. There is a little turtle museum too. Very cool.
We saw Wall-E Movie too. And ate out a lot. Oh at mom's Stephen went to Red Lobster and had his first crab legs. He loved them. That's an expensive love.
