Sea Lions and dolphins are entertaining!

I found this short video of the sea lions in their feeding cage.

And then there are the dolphins.  The show was great!

SeaWorld, Shamu, Sea Lions, Oh My!

If you are ever in San Diego you have to go to SeaWorld and see all the amazing shows.  And that is just what we did last Friday.  

  For one of the shows I was called out of the crowd to assist in the 'feats of strength'.

 They are opening a new sea turtle exhibit and we found a friend there.  It was just like watching the turtles in Nemo.

The killer whale program was great!  They had five whales that performed.  The best was the mother and her little one which followed every move it's mother made.  

 

 The sea lions and the tiny otter always put on a great show. 

 

 We also watched the feeding of the seals and sea lions (and the sea gulls).  One girl right next to me had a fish in her hand and a sea gull flew right up and took it out of her hand.  And it's wings hit me in the face!

 The funnest part of the whole trip is that we paid a little more for our ticket and got 'Premium Passport Reserved Seating' at all the big shows.  We had perfect seats!  Ha! Ha!

 

Fun with the grandchildren

Just before we left Utah to come to San Diego we went bowling with Lori and Adia and Gavin.

We had a great time.  We miss them already.  

We are on the move again.

We are now living in San Diego!  Rick accepted a new position with General Atomics and is working at their facility here.  In a few months we will return and Rick will be working at Dugway, UT for the company.  It is a great job and we are excited. 

 As you can see we love going to the beaches and watching and hearing the surf.  The weather couldn't be better.  We feel bad hearing about all the rain and snow in Utah.
 

One of our first trips was to the Mexico border.  We ended up at an outlet mall and found some new work clothes.  It was weird to see the border right behind the stores.  And we were the one of the few that spoke English. Most of the workers spoke both Spanish and English.  It was fun for Rick to hear the spanish again.

New Shower Door

We finally got our shower door installed and it is awesome. It is a great looking glass door. It is hard to remember what the old shower looked like. I am very excited on how it all turned out.

Jared created a family history blog a while ago. It lists several family trees. I thought I would put a link to it on our blog.

The Bathroom Remodeling Projects

We decided to replace our shower and bathroom floors with travertine stone tiles.  It has taken a few weeks to get the master bath done but it has been worth it.  I tore out the old shower and floors and rebuild the shower.

The shower was enclosed on all four sides except for a small door.  I took out the wall where the door was so the shower ended up U shaped.  It looks great.  Our neighbor Howdy Whipple installed the stone for the shower and the floor in that bathroom.

  
Following his example I just replaced the old floor in the main bathroom with the travertine stone tile. 

Now I have to replace the baseboard and touch up some of the paint.  Then on the the entry way floor.  Hopefully I can get that done in the next few weeks.
