Summer Vacation - 2013

So we finally decided where to go with our family budget and it was decided to go to SeaWorld since the girls have been fighting for the only Shamu in the house and we thought this would be a great opportunity to buy an additional Shamu to end the fighting.

Things didn't start out well with Sofia throwing a fit but that was fix by my hand hittting her bottom then all was well!

 I did the impossible and asked strangers throughout our vacation to help us take a family picture. God willing, when we are able to go back again, we'll see how much our daughters have grown! And to kill time before the shows started we or they hopped on some rides!

                                                       Our first show and it was HOT!

                                        There is always something new to see! Like this guy! 

                                                  Finally, she was happy and goofy!               

                            It was so HOT, Sofia enjoyed getting wet whenever she had the chance to!

 Waiting for Shamu to show up and the only one who was no longer interested was Raquel, who did not enjoyed getting wet.

                                                 At another ride where we had a blast!

                                             Sofia showing me how high she can jump!

Finally, they got what they came to SeaWorld for. More Shamu toys!

Chicken Nuggets and French Fries for three and a half days. The most junk food they have EVER eaten!

Another family picture opportunity! This was taken at the last Shamu show.  

Raquel had the least fun at the shows. She did not enjoyed getting wet, Sofia looked forward to it. I hope Raquel grows out of it or it will be a long suffering life stuck with us.

This last time she told me: "Mom, I was brave, I didn't cry." 

Another family pic!

Time to go! It was a blast! 

The rest of our vacation was spent exploring San Antonio!

Sofia loves Dinasours, Raquel pretends she loves them.

Sofia found her princess dress and asked me to take her a picture.

Raquel's dream dress. I do like her pick.

At the Alamo where I had a paranormal experience. I couldn't sleep that night.  

At the Riverwalk Boat ride

Raquel was excited!

Sofia felt asleep. It was day three without her afternoon nap.

AND another family pic!

Our waitress was working hard for her money! 

and yet another family pic!

Posing with San Antonio! 



Spring Break - Six Flags

It was 80 degrees in Dallas. It was hot for March. Oh, and crowded and it was decided that we will never again go in Spring Break. But what mattered the most is that Sofia and Rauel had a blast! Here's at the Tea Cup ride. This was definately a new one for us, since before we had our girls, I never dreamed on getting into these type of rides.

At El Sombrero ride. 

This was the longest ride we had to wait on. 45 minutes to get our food! Thankfully, our girls were very patient.

Holding on to dear life! Raquel doesn't like heights at all! Sofia had a blast and was throwing her arms up in the air like she just didn't care.

All by themselves!

At the train!

The Boot Ride!

And we finished it up at Braums with the cousins!

When Sofia gets tired, she gets goofy!

These two are just goofy!
