Taking a Break

I have decided to take a break from blogging and teaching for a while. Life is just too crazy right now and I have alot of other priorities to concentrate on. There may be one here and there but for now I will be MIA. Thanks for visiting me and my world. 


Peace Out

ELP Trip


This last weekend I got to go on Jadens ELP trip with him over to San Diego. It was a whirlwind of a good time.  We went out on a boat at 0 dark thirty and even saw dolphins, played at Sea World, and explored Scripts aquarium. Now this was just the first day! The next day we headed off to another aquirium, had pizza on the beach, built sand sculptures  and headed home. NEVER a dull moment. It was way fun! 


This was the closest I got to having my feet in the sand. The kids couldnt take off their shoes so I was good and didnt. But it was oh so tempting. 

This is jaden sea star! He did a great job! His prize was most realistic.

YES! He is that much taller than me. Ughh Im short!

We sat up close to Shamu in the show. In the soak zone. But luckily we were too far to the side to get soaked. We didnt have as much luck in the dolphin show however. SOAKED in that one. No pictures however because the camera was wrapped up tightly for that one.

This is our veiw from boat. We actually saw tons of dolphins. It was very cool.

That is a manta shrimp our guide is holding. She had about a dozen critters she showed the kids. Crabs, lobsters, shrimp, sting ray, several fish. She was a great guide for these guys.

Jaden absolutly loved the boat. He didnt want to get off. Me on the other hand was ready. I dont do well with the motion of the ocean. I cant wait to go next year now. Well worth the travel and sleeplessness!

Just a note. Blogger does something to photos when uploaded because alot of color and sharpness is gone. I know Ive asked before but does anyone know how to avoid that?
