I'm not a writer so I choose to document with pictures. And if a picture's worth a thousand words, I must be a really good writer after all;-) Here is our family vacation in pictures.
First stop in San Diego...
Sea World!
(Its really a toss up for who enjoyed it more...us or the boys.)
We hit up all the shows and loved them!
Coop thought this guy was pretty funny and so did we. Really, the guy was hilarious!
Elmo's Playland was probably the boys favorite part since they could get involved. It was a nice break for us...except for getting sick on all the spinning rides, yuck!
I think this picture is hilarious. You can see how excited they were to see Elmo and the funniest part it, they don't even watch Elmo. (Good thing Elmo didn't know that!)
Sharks
Can't leave without seeing the shamu show. Carter was enthralled the whole time which is odd but we'll take it!
More spinny rides...ugh!
La Jolla Beach
I could not get enough of watching the boys run away from the water. Their genuinely giddy faces kept me smiling the whole time...even when carter slipped and fell leaving his pants soaked.
As you can see, they are in pants and sweatshirts which means the weather was pretty chilly most of the time. Too bad really but it didn't stop us.
Oh ya, and there were a bunch of seals there too...
...but the boys were much more fun to watch!
This may look like he ate it in the water but he saved himself and didn't even get wet!
The Beach next to our timeshare...don't know the name.
It was a little warmer this day which is why we donned the shorts. However, still cold enough that long sleeves were needed.
Once again the boys spent a majority of their time running from the water. You see here that Coop and Daddy are the only ones running. That is only because (once again) Carter ate it big time and got covered with sand and water. Lucky daddy was right there to save him cuz even in just a foot of water he was covered and came up spluttering.
Poor guy was freezing after his fall and a little traumatized but came out ok.
Here we are packing up and Carter thought he found a great hiding place to play Daddy's i-pod.
After San Diego, we decided last minute to head over to New Mexico to visit family. We stayed for a day and then headed out. Not very long but totally worth it!
Had some singing time with Great-Grandma Alby, Grandma AJ, & Caleb
Some trampoline time
Basketball time
Grandma AJ play time
Frisbee time
And some uno with Uncle Kip.
Life is good!
