Mad Max on the Tempest Water slide

Video Hosting - Upload Video - Video Sharing Max and Mika were little dare devils at the water park. They both went on every ride but the boogie Bahn, they were to short. They have both become my little fish loving the water! This is of Max and Trent on the Tempest!

More from South Padre

Here we are with the turtles. We went to this fun place called Seaturtle Inc. They are a non-profit organization to help save the sea turtles the kids had fun looking at them and Max even touched a few only to learn that the baby sea turtles in the gift shop had parasites. Who would put parasite infested turtles in little open containers on the floor at a kids level with no signs??

Trent was so proud of his body boarding so I thought I would post another picture. I even went out and tried it, my only advice is don't wear a two piece while attempting this.
I am not sure if this video will post but here is Trent on what they call the Boogie Bahn at Schlitterbahn.
Mika and Ellie going around the lazy river that turns into rapids later on. I found that out while I was on with the baby. I quickly got off as to not scar Paxton for life and wonder why he is afraid of water later in life. 

Horseback riding on the Beach!

This was alot of fun. Heather, Maddie, Ben, Ellie, Mika and I went on this excursion. The girls were the youngest ones on the trip and had a blast. Mika kept kicking her horse and calling out "run like the wind" and "trott, trott" I think that my horse heard her and when it was time for the more advanced group to go ahead my horse took off and followed. 

Fishing!

Mika had quite the time fishing she did get one catch and apparently dad ruined it and lost it as they were reeling it in.
Maddie and Ben were the stars of the trip!
Here is Trent's catch of the Day! I think this was his only catch! 

Sandmonsters!

The sandmonsters attacking yet another masterpiece! 

Let's go surf'n now!

 

Sun block baby!

After that first day in the sun getting burnt, I was extra careful and caked on the sunblock. I think I went a little over board with the baby. Hey he was the only one not to get burnt! 

Blue Man

The first day that we were out on the beach we all got a little sun burnt, I found this amazing stuff the only draw back is that it made your skin blue. It washed off but looked funny while it was on. 

Trent and Dave's masterpiece!

Trent and Dave created this wonderful sand castle until Max and Sammy came upon it and decided they were the giants of the castle. 

Catch a wave!

Max and Ellie going for it. Those kids get so far out in the ocean. 

Surfer Boy

Max took to the water like a fish. He is a little to comfortable in the water for my taste. He goes off with the girls and just floats along. 

Help! I'm drowning

Paxton looked so funny in his little beach get-up we were all dying he looked so adorable. He actually really likes the water too! 

Carrot Boy

Kindergarten Graduation

Here is Mika and her friend Katy at the end of the year picnic/Kindergarten graduation. 

Day 2 Sucks

I was doing great all day with this and now I have a monster headache and you can't take anything on this. It doesn't help that I have to make all my kids meals and watch them eat. I am tired, cranky and want a sandwich. I haven't really craved food that much and realized that it takes a few days to off this thing and we are going on vacation and I don't want to be having problems because of what I eat. I am just trying to come up with every excuse that I can to do this another time. We have to much going on right now and well ahhhhh!

On another note we went to the grocery store tonight with the kids and at the end Mika stubbed her toe. She was fine until she looked at her toe and then realized that it was bleeding a little bit. The drama queen really came out tonight. It was truly an Oscar deserving performance. You would have thought the toe had fallen off by her reaction and when I wouldn't turn the lights on in the car then she really starting going nuts, if it was at all even possible for her to act more crazy then she already was. Then she proceeded to tell us that it was her only hope (refering to the lights coming on in the car). There was wailing and nashing of teeth going on in the back of the car and it lasted the entire trip home. I was wishing at that point to just knock me out.

Another little tagent it was 10 o'clock when we were getting home ( both Trent and I are in a complete fog from this thing and thought it was on 8, we really need help) anyway there was this kid ridding his bike couldn't be more then 10 on a fairly busy road, in the pitch black dark, in the rain, holding a flashlight with one hand (at least he had that or I would have probably hit him because his clothing and bike were so dark) but what was this little boy doing out so late at night on his bike in the rain. Trent says he has seen him later riding his bike then that. I am in total shock and appauled, but that is just me. and were was he coming from so late at night. Anyway enough I am off to sabatoge Trent into breaking the cleanse and taking the fall...of course "Adam" must follow. hehehehe

The Master Cleanse

I am blogging about this because I believe it will make me stick to it better if I document the whole process. A friend of mine who is a major health guru told me about this after she heard how sick Trent and I have been lately and said to give it a try, so here we go. This is otherwise known as the lemonade diet. I can't believe Trent is doing it with me, he has called me about 8 times today to see how I am doing and so far so good. He is already wanting to chew his arm off. Basically this is a liquid cleanse and so far I have to say that it is working. You are supposed to do this for a minimum of 10 days so for the next 10 days you will have to bare with my daily blogs to help me stay on tract. My friend said the worst day is Sunday's when you are tempted to eat food more then ever. Trent and I have nothing going on before we leave for Texas so we figured now is as good a time as any to try this. I hope that Trent stays on this to make it easier for me I don't think I could handle him eating in front of me. I always cave when he eats in front of me and go for that Sundae that I don't need or that bowl of deep fried whatever that he has made up. Stay tuned for tomorrow and I promise no details, there are things you don't want to know about this cleanse, just an update to make sure I haven't fallen off the wagon.
