Memorial Day at Sea World

We spent the first half of our 11th anniversary showing Charlotte around Sea World. I took WAY too many pictures so, I'll just let them tell the story for me.

Excited that G-ma and Grumpy have arrived!
Letting us know she is serious about getting into this park
Intently watching "Melmo" Live with the rest of the Sesame Street Gang (Melmo=Elmo)
Playing the timpani(?) at Shamu's Splash Park (Ms. Debbie would be proud!)
Going down the slide...
Finally, the Splash Pad! She was timid at first, but it didn't take her too long to get into it.
It was a great morning and I am looking forward to taking Charlotte back to play at the Splash Pad. Hopefully, when it is less crowded!
What did you do on Memorial Day?

    Charlotte looks like she was having a blast. I wish we lived closer to Sea World. We stayed close to home and had a cook-out.

    She is so cute! I probably shouldn't say this (don't cry mom), but does she look older all of the sudden?! She seems to have grown up since the last photo shoot. She's a doll!

    @Jenn - I won't cry... it has been becoming clearer to me over the last 2 months how much she has grown up since January.

    @Katie D - This was a Children's Place After-Summer sale last year. Maybe you can find something similar on eBay???

    Ms. Debbie IS so proud! I'll bet she had a hum-dinger of a time on those steel drums. They are one of my favorites at Sea World, too.

Giveaway: Bake Me A Wish

Image
This giveaway is closed. When I came home from running errands recently, I saw a big box sitting on my doorstep. As I got closer, the anticipation built and then I realized it was a Vanilla Bean Cake from Bake Me A Wish! Woo hoo! This was a review I knew my husband would enjoy participating in. The Vanilla Bean cake from Bake Me a Wish! came packed in a cooler and ice pack because it is perishable. It took self control, but I put it in the fridge straight away and waited patiently for my husband to come home so we could celebrate life. When we finally got to sample the cake, I put some candles on it so Charlotte could practice blowing them out. We are slowly getting ready for the big day of her birthday party and have never put candles on a cake for her before. As I was enjoying my slice of the Vanilla Bean Cake, Bruce and I brainstormed when this type of cake service might be useful. And here is the list we came up with: When you want a gourmet cake, but don't have acces...

Win Free Cereal

This giveaway is closed. Winners will be announced later this weekend. I've definitely been on the giveaway wagon recently and am glad to be participating in the Fall Bloggy Giveaways Carnival. For this giveaway, I have FOUR (yes, you read that right - 4 winners!) full-price coupons for a new cereal from General Mills. Per their marketing, this cereal " combines great-tasting chocolatey puffs with vanilla puffs, a classic combination that kids love. Even better, Cocoa Puffs Combos is made with whole grain and is a good source of Calcium and Vitamin D." I love cereal. I could eat it for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and as a snack in between all of those. I am particularly fond of Lucky Charms. The crunchy combined with the sweet marshmallows gets me every time. All you have to do to enter is tell me what your favorite cereal is and leave some way for me to contact you, either through a blog or e-mail. This giveaway is open to US residents only (because I don't think t...

Note to Self

Image
This giveaway is closed. Winners will be announced later this weekend. Warning: Since I typically have a family-friendly blog, I want to let my readers know that this post is not safe for little eyes. Have you ever sat down with a new friend and found you stayed up way too late talking about every subject under the sun? Discussing religion, careers, and yes, even sex, even though you've only known each other for a very short period of time? That is what it was like for me to read Note to Self - On Keeping a Journal and Other Dangerous Pursuits , by Samara O'Shea. Once I started it, I felt like Samara and I were just hanging out on my couch, sipping decaf lattes and having a conversation. (Okay, Samara might be sipping something harder, but I'm still nursing.) It was that easy to read. The basic premise of her newest book is teaching people how to write in a journal, by sharing her own journal entries. Personally, she wrote for therapy, sharing "A journal is an effecti...
