Dining with Shamu


This past weekend was one of the best that the Lacy family has had in a while. On Friday, we took half the day off and went to Sea World. While we've been a dozen times before (season passes), it was the first time Dalton has been tall enough to ride the rides. Showing absolutely no fear, we had to ride the Shamu roller coaster at least 6 times. We had so much fun we went back on Sunday. We rode the rides, saw the shows, fed the birds...did it all. Then, we had dinner with baby Shamu! They let you backstage where they train the whales and you get to sit and eat right next to their tanks. Three words. Best. Buffet. Ever. The whale was cool too. This one is only two years old and is still learning so we got to watch a training session. Dalton had a blast.

Click on the picture to see more. Some of the first pictures are from the Poteet Strawberry Festival that we went to earlier this month. It's basically a little town south of S/A that is really into strawberries and throws a big festival every year. 2 hours of traffic to get there. No joke.

Hey there! The pics at SeaWorld look like lots of fun! I can't believe how much Dalton has grown. I also wanted to tell you that the pictures from Addison's room on your old website look so cute! Y'all did a great job decorating her room! Crystal, I hope you stay comfortable for the next few weeks, and everything goes smoothly for the delivery. :) Love, Nicole
