First Soccer Game!

Tonight was Samuel's first soccer game.  He is so excited to have a team shirt and to have shin gaurds.

 

Antarctica!

The new attraction  has opened at Sea World.  We have been really excited to go see it and finally it was our turn (we had to make reservations for front of the line passes or wait in line for 3 hours...so we waited for our reservation date).  It was pretty awesome.  Samuel loves penguins.

 

First Soccer Practice

Samuel loves soccer and I am so glad that there is an indoor soccer league for him!  Here is a video of his first soccer practice.  His favorite part is the running :)

Preschool Graduation

Samuel has finished graduation.  The program was adorable and Samuel did very well on his part.  The theme was The Very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carl.

When each child's name was announced they also said what the child wants to be when he grows up. 
Samuel wants to be an ambulance driver!

What graduation would be complete without Mickey Mouse, the superintendent of the school!

Busch Gardens and Madagascar Live

We love our passes to Busch Gardens and Sea World - we feel especially blessed because for less than $20/month our entire family gets to enjoy both parks.  See as parking is now $15 at each park we totally get our money's worth!
One of the benefits of being pass holders is getting to go to special pass holder previews and so for the first showing of Madagascar Live we had excellent seats.  Samuel really enjoyed the show although we all kind of missed having Marty (the Zebra).  Below are some videos of the show.

We also had a great time walking around the park, riding some rides, and seeing the animals.  Here are a few pictures from our last couple visits.
