Can't decide, please help

Here is what I want to do (maybe)

First of Feb, drive down (8hrs) go to Busch Gardens 1-day, then Legoland 1-day, then Seaworld 1-day

Then (hopefully) go back end of May,first of June. Go back to Seaworld, Busch Gardens, Aquatica, and US/IOA.

Okay, here is my question: If we do Seaworld and Busch Gardens now, would we want to go back in May? We have never been. It would be Me, DH and DS. We like animals, shows, water rides and tame rides. (we ride BTM, Splash, but not RnRC) No thrill rides. I was just wondering, because there is a ticket where you can come back all year for SW and BG for like $135 ea (to go to both parks). I thought that was a pretty good deal.

Never been to any of these parks, except US/IOA. Any input would be appreciated, thanks.

I would probably not drive 8 hours for a three day stay.

At Christmas, we did Busch Gardens 2 days and Sea World 4. The fourth day we just hit a couple of the holiday shows we had missed and didn't stay too many hours the third. We also made a brief visit to Aquatica, which looks like it would be great fun but crowded in warm weather.

The kids love the coasters at Busch Gardens. If you aren't interested in them, there is less to do, but there are some shows and a few tamer rides. A nice kiddie area if you're children are small.

BS and SW would both be fun to visit a second time.

IOA/US are heavy on the thrill rides. I loved the HP land but I could not ride over half of the two parks. DH rode most rides but he said he does not want to go back anytime soon.

IIRC there is a special IOA/US/SW/BG ticket they sell.
