Thanksgiving Break!

We had a fabulous Thanksgiving Break. The kids got an entire week off from school, so it gave us lots of time to spend with Jason's parents while they were here. We took off early Saturday morning for Orlando to spend a few days before Thanksgiving.

The kids with Ema on the way into LegoLand!


LegoLand was really cool-- perfect for kids preschool age up through elementary age. They not only had amazing Lego sculptures and cities, but tons of rides. The kids got to ride at least 4 roller coasters and lots of other fun rides.



Our next Pizza by the Sea employee....;)


We also spend two days at Sea World. Jason and his parents had never been there, and I was 14 the last time I was there, so we all really enjoyed it, especially the shows. The dolphin and whale show were amazing and the kids loved the dog and cat show. I kept thinking, "how did they train a cat to do that? Our cat looks at us in total disgust when we try to get him to even move!"





The boys after riding The Manta ( a major roller coaster). Alex didn't want to ride it the first day, but I was so proud of him for doing it the second day. He loved it except for the upside down part. He said, " It felt like all of the air was being sucked out of me!"

Alex feeding the stingrays. Caroline wasn't too sure about sticking her hand down to have the critters suck a fish out of her fingers. I don't blame her...

We headed back late Monday to get ready for all of the craziness at the restaurant. It was very busy Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday. Lots of people came down to spend the holiday at the beach, and everyone wanted some pizza after eating turkey Thursday!

More pics from our holiday coming soon. Hope you had a relaxing Thanksgiving day!
