Wish Update

Ben has wished to go back to San Diego! He had such a great time out there last spring and is excited to go back. He really wants to feed elephants at the Wild Animal Park. We’re not sure that we can do that, but we’ll see what we can do. We’re currently working out the details with the wish granters and are looking at the third week of January for our trip.

I think Madie put some pressure on him to go back to Sea World - she hasn’t stopped talking about Baby Shamu.

We’re also looking forward to seeing Colin and Roby while we’re out there again.
