My mom called New Years Eve day and asked what are plans were for the night. We had none and as she was telling me what my sister's were doing, she said Jessica had gone to California and was going to go to Sea World tomorrow. There was a deal that if you bought your ticket Jan. 1st it was good for all of 2012. I told her let's go. She laughed at me, she had gotten home from California at 1am that morning and knew my dad and brother would never go for it. She told me if I could get my brother to go she would talk to my dad. Little did my mom know that the day before my BROKE brother had text me to wish me Happy Birthday and told me he was going to give me the best present money couldn't buy. Well, I got him! I reminded him of this text and told him I wanted him to go with us to Sea World today with NO whining or complaining for 36 hours. He said he would and was actually excited to be out of Vegas for New Years. The only thing was Maggie (the girl friend) had to come. I had to do a lot of sweet talking to get my husband to come, he had a lot of work to do the next week to make up for going but I am so glad he came with us. At 2pm we all loaded in the cars and headed to San Diego. The kids were so excited, they actually travelled pretty well. Once we got down there we went over the bridge to Coronado island to watch the fireworks. That was a joke. The fog was so bad that we could see NO fireworks. It was absolutely terrible driving over the bridge when the fog was so low you could not see the light on the car in front of you and could barely see the wall of the bridge next to you. We will never be driving on a bridge with fog like that again. Nothing is worth seeing that bad!

Axtan actually enjoyed watching all the animals
This is how I finally got Axtan to take a nap. I had to hold him so he could watch Shamu!
My mom bought a bucket of 100 rings. Do you think anyone of these fools could get a ringer?!?!
NOPE
Although it was 75 degrees, Sea World had a snowy wonderland for the kids!
It was a very quick trip but a very fun trip! We left at 2pm on Sat. and got home at 2am Mon, but it was worth it!
