Yum

We had crab legs for dinner tonight and decided to give Evan a taste and he LOVED it! 

 Yum Yum.

Then the boys took a bath together.  Seth has learned to pull himself up on the side of the tub and stand.  We have to watch him very closely so he doesnt slip. 

 Look at me mom, I'm standing. 

I'm going to climb out.  

Evan and I were wrestling and somehow this happened.  :) 

The Boys

 Rolling around on the floor.  

What do you see out there?

 Seth in his cute new pjs.

Sea World

As soon as we were in the park we headed straight for the Shamu show.  It was really impressive. 

 We visited the Polar Bear exhibit.  There were fake caves for the kids to play in, Evan thinks he's a big scary Polar Bear. 

 Evan dragging me to the next exhibit. 

 Then we saw the Penguins, they were really cute and so are Judah and Gianna! 

 We also saw the big Clydesdale horses. 

 The kiddos waiting for the Sea Lion and Otter show.

 Lets get the show started!

 The boys were ready for naps.

 We saw the Dolphins underwater.  Then...

 We went up top to feed and pet them. 

 I was nervous that one would bite me. 

 Jay's done this before. 
So where was Evan?

 Napping!  Can you believe it, he missed out on seeing the Dolphins up close.

 Hi, Tiernan.  He's such a sweet boy. 

 Jay and Jamie goofing around at the end of the day.

Family photo!

The Hatton Family

Jed's sister, Missy, her husband Ben and their three kids, Judah, Gianna, and Tiernan, visited us last week.  Ben and Missy are Missionaries with New Tribes Mission up at the bible school in Jackson.  It's Christmas break at the school so they decided to take advantage and come to Florida.  Their kids and our kids are about the same age so it was fun to watch, Evan, Judah and Gianna play together.    After the kids went to bed at night we had sometime to catch up with Ben and Missy.  It was interesting to hear about what they're doing around the school and at church.  We also kept pretty busy during the day, Missy, Joy and I were able to get away one afternoon to go shopping, we went to the park with the kids one day, the adults got away one evening for dessert at the Cheesecake Factory (yummy!!), we went to New Smyrna beach then rushed home to have a party with some friends and went to Sea World for an entire day (something I NEVER thought we'd do with the kids all being so young).  They headed home today and we'll miss them a lot.  We cant wait for the next time we can all get together!

 Judah had a blast!  He loved the waves.    He and Evan ran in and out of the water all afternoon.

 Close ups of Seth and Evan.

 Tiernan and daddy testing the water, it was a little cold for Tiernan. 

 Heading home from the beach, exhausted. 

 Some friends at our little get together after the beach.

 The park.

 Seth and Tiernan, Seth is actually a whole month older than Tiernan but he weighs a good 4 or 5 lbs less than him.  My kids are tiny. 

 Aunt Missy giving Evan an underdog.  He loved it! 

 Gianna doing her own thing.

Judah, giving Seth a little push. 

Well this post is getting super long and I still have TONS more photos to put up so I'll do more later.  We have some cool ones of Sea World so check back tomorrow.  Have a great day everyone!!
