Legoland
Legoland was a must on our visit to San Diego. WE were able to get free tickets through the Give Kids the World Passport. We weren't sure how many rides Simeon would be able to do, but he ended up being able to all the rides except the 2 water rides. They had a water park area that we just stayed clear of. The park was really neat because so many things are made out of legos-sculptures and figurines. Ammon was tall enough for most rides too. Ammon was really looking forward to riding the jousting horses, and Simeon was so excited to drive the cars. It took him a few minutes to figure out the gas and brake petals and ended up crashing into someone at a stop sign. Once he figured out the petals, he was a great driver! The day we went it wasn't crowded at all, so we didn't need to wait very long to ride any rides. We also took a tour of the Lego factory.
Simeon has grown into such a sweet, compassionate, helpful young man. He likes to be called Drizzt from RA Salvatores books. He reads likes crazy, loves baseball, making bows, doing Boys Scouts and playing with Legos. He continues to do wonderful since finishing chemo January 10, 2010 after 3 years and 3 months for leukemia (ALL & AML). To check up on his health go to www.carepages.com pagename simeon5
Corrine
Corrine is such a sweet, kind, helpful daughter. She likes to play softball, bake, draw, make concoctions outside, ride her bike and play with Legos. She likes to style both her hair and Rebecca's. When ever we need a treat made, we look to Corrine and she gets it made! She loves to run and has run many 5K's.
Ammon
Ammon has such a fun, full of energy, sweet and loving personality. He is our "sponge" kid lately, soaking up so much info and telling us about it. He loves to learn and do science and Spanish club. He is a blue belt in Taekwondo and is amazingly strong! He is an amazing soccer goalier, likes to ride his bike up our hill, make bows and arrows, play Legos, play the Wii and read. He takes great pictures and loves to take pictures where ever we are.
Rebecca
Rebecca is the sweetest, most loving mommy to her dozen babies she takes care of. She has the brightest smiles, kisses, hugs that she loves to give away. She has become a talking, moving, learning machine! She started a co-op preschool this year that she LOVES. She is also in a dance class that she can spin and tap in-it's heaven for her! She loves to read books, swing, play games, go outside, and play with her siblings. She is almost always happy and smiling with an rare tantrum. She LOVES the camera and taking pictures with it.
