San Degio Zoo

I finally have time to actually sit down and read blogs. So i guess that means i should do the rest pf my trip...

Our last day is California..

We headed to the Zoo. I always heard that it takes people about two days to see the whole zoo. Well we knew that we didn't have the time to go two days. So we planned it out and went and saw some of the animals we really never see.

Panda Bears

Bears,

Peacocks

Polar Bears

Hippo

the list goes on and on.

The weather was a little colder that day. Which was okay with me cause the day before i got SOOO burnt. I was in need for some cold time.
The park is huge like everyone say. But we got around everywhere pretty fast and got to see just about everything.

We were passing the Lions and right when we were doing that the zookeepers came out and started feeding the lions. Lets just say seeing them eat was crazy. I knew they were HUGE but when he got on his hind legs, he was so dang tall. It was pretty neat to see that..

Connor loved the Zoo just like i knew he would.

I know that this has taken me so dang long and I'm really sorry they are short also.

Overall our trip was AMAZING. I hated leaving and i cant wait to go back. This vacation was MUCH needed.

The trip home so so long and it took forever. I got car sick again so it made it much much worst..

But i would do it again as long as i got to stay in California!!

Sea World

So i set here on a Friday and think its about time i should do more about my California trip. I swear that i am the WORST blogger ever!!

so I'm sorry that i am. :)

Anyways Sea World..

This was by far my favorite park out of all them. I love Sea animals. Dolphins are one of my favorite animals.

So once we got there Connor just needed to see the whale. So we headed over there for the great show. We were sitting in the soak zone. BUT we didn't get wet AT all. Connor was so sad cause that what he wanted the most was to get wet by the whale. Poor boy was so close to crying, but i told him that we would make sure that he got wet at the dolphin show. And he got SOAKED. I swear i never heard him laugh that hard in his life. But he laughed and laughed and laughed. He kept telling me that this was the best thing in the world!!!! Totally worth everything..

The park wasn't busy at all which made it a lot better for all us. The weather was so nice and Sea world was just amazing.. 

Connor was also able to fed a sea lion. He loved getting all gross with the dead fishes, and he would laugh when the sea lions would make their noise. He couldn't believe how fast that could eat the fish..

Anyways Connor loved it, I loved it, and Logan loves us!

So we all left happy and wanting to go back..

Daddy update

Its been a really long time. But i thought it would be a good thing to update you all about My amazing dad..

To say the least he is doing Wonderful..

We are still pretty busy every day all week.. We have about 5 different appointments each week. We have to run into salt lake for the hand therapist, and then we have to run to get adjustment for his legs and arm. When we are there, i swear we are always there for about 3 hours. Not even kidding. The reason why is cause the adjustments for my dads legs need to be perfect, or my dad doesn't want to walk on them. I mean who could blame him right. Ive learn to just leave him there and go shopping. :) More like window shopping but its better then hanging out and doing nothing. I like that i can finally leave without having to worry about my dad. He is very independent, for the most part. They are some thing that we still need to help him with. But for the most part he is very great on his own.

My dads arm is doing pretty well. He is still learning how to do normal things, like brush his teeth, get his legs on, get himself food, you know just normal things.

Last week at the hand therapist they had him make himself lunch. Grilled cheeses and soup. He did great. The soup was so easy for my dad to make. His hand was working perfect, but when it came to the grilled cheese. It was a Little harder. He wasn't about to butter the bread, so he asked him. And after that it was pretty well easy. I thought it looked great. But he wasn't happy about it.




Then a few weeks ago my dad headed to Idaho for the first time in a very long time. We finally got the okay from the doctor to let him go. I wasn't able to be there, but i know he did amazing. He was able to see his dad that isn't doing to good right now. Everyone was really excited to finally see him out of the hospital...

When we found out that he would be losing his arm and legs, the first thing My little sister said was.... Will my dad ever be able to mow his lawn again...

Weird thing to say. But the law is my dads pride and joy. He has to have his law just perfect.. Well after 2 months of watching us not doing the law right. My dad got out there and mowed his law. It was very emotional to watch. Who would of thought seeing my dad mow the lawn would make me cry. But thing was something would never thought he would be able to do again. We were wrong and he mowed it great...

And just real quick...

Lets me just say. We have amazing friends.. With this fundraiser coming up, we have learned that there is really amazing people in this world.. I just cant believe how great people are..

So let me just say THANK YOU.....

Just a fast update for you guys about my dad. Things are just great over here..

Hope you all have a great weekend... :)
