Teach Family Blog: Weekend Visitors

Our good friends, The Garretts, visited us this past weekend from Wisconsin. Their daughter Gisele is only 10 days older than Jackson, so we had our hands full!

First up on the list was the Legoland Sealife Aquarium. Jackson LOVES to watch fish in aquariums, so he was in heaven. He ran around the aquarium like he owned the place- pushing his way to the front of the displays and getting mad if anyone tried to get in 'his space'.

SHARKS! Jackson was in the process of telling Gisele to move back b/c this was his area.

Finding out what shark, whale and eel skin feels like.

Next on the list was Sea World. Last time we went not all of the exhibits were open, so we got to see a lot more than we did last time. Before we began our Sea World adventure we stopped and got a few things at the snack bar. Gisele and Jackson saw some pigeons flying around picking up food so they took off chasing them. I think we could have went home right after that and they wouldn't have known the difference :)

The animals were very active when we were there. Shamu was out and about swimming in her tank and the walruses were very playful, even coming up and kissing the glass in front of Jackson.

On Sunday Jared and Justin went to the Chargers/Packers football game down in San Diego. It was pouring outside so Tugce and I took the kiddos to the indoor mall play area to let off some steam. I guess everyone else in the area had the same idea because the play area was packed. Jackson decided to have a few meltdowns right in the middle of the play area, which was quite comical because the other kids just kept on going as if nothing was happening- a few of them evening jumping over him.
