Caricatures

The first time we went to Legoland was July 2004. Tubbs was only a few months old and Bubba was almost 2 1/2. Bubba was so excited, I will never forget his little face and he began his love of everything Legos.
They have a number of different locations around the park that do caricatures so we had to stop.

Bubba (I think the artist nailed it on this one)

Tubbs (ummm...not so much. But thats okay)
So, we headed back to Legoland a few days ago while we were on our way to San Diego. Of course we had to stop again and get Petunia's picture done.

I asked the girl to put her in a swimsuit, holding a pacifier.
When I saw the end product...I was a little creeped out.
Soooooo...when we returned the next day we asked the guy working the artist bench if we could get a new one done for no charge.
He said yes.
Good deal.
This time the guy drew her with her sun hat on so the hair wouldn't look so...boyish.

He also included the dimples we love so much.

That Stop Wasn't On My Itinerary....

So the Hogue's made it to Florida for our first official family vacation. It was Sawyer's first plane ride....and Simon's first plane ride that he can remember. We were excited....the boys were stoked. We had everything we needed! But it seems that Sawyer packed something with him that wasn't on our checklist: a big case of pneumonia. Yes, the little fella made it almost one whole day in Florida before he started heading downhill fast. Our 2nd day in Orlando we were in the Urgent Care south of Cocoa Beach. (By the way, to see a doctor more quickly, it helps if you vomit all over the waiting room in front of the receptionist. Little tip for ya) After chest x-rays they advised us to head to the ER in Melbourne, where they eventually admitted him to the hospital. So, we had 3 night deluxe accommadations at the Holmes Regional Medical Center. The little whipper snapper was a trooper though! The nurses loved him, thankfully, and made us all feel right at home. We were going to send postcards out with pictures of the hospital since we spent 40% of our trip there...but they didn't have any. Imagine that!Hmmm.....maybe its something they should consider.
