San Diego, CA!!!

So since we are moving to Utah we realize that California won't be just a mere 4 hours away anymore! So we decided to take a last minute, last chance trip to San Diego before our big move! Sunday we drove down and Keith took the kids to a Padres game!

Monday was Nick's official birthday and we went to Sea World to celebrate. We saw Shamu and fed the rays. We saw the new dolphin show which Hannah said was her favorite part of the trip! Hannah and Nick are quite the dare devils and rode all the rides they were tall enough to ride! We watched some fireworks and headed home very happy!

Tuesday we swam at the hotel in the morning and hit the beach in the afternoon. Nick said this was his favorite part of the trip! All 3 kids kids loved digging in the sand and playing in the waves.






Wednesday we went to Lego Land. We had never been before and Hannah & Nick were the perfect ages. They could ride everything and loved every minute of it! They got their faces painted and Hannah couldn't get enough of the roller coasters!







Thursday we swam again and drove home. We are exhausted and ready to start packing up! We will be sad that visiting California won't be as easy once we are in Utah. We love vacationing there! I guess maybe some of our Vegas friends will have to let us crash with them overnight next summer on the long drive! Hint hint!

You can crash with us ANYTIME!!! (We'll most likely be headed that direction anyway, we'll follow you ... isn't San Diego SO fun!!??) =) Looks like you guys had such a great trip, I'm so glad you got to do that before you're move. Those smiles in all of the pictures are just priceless!

Glad you had a great time in California! We enjoyed our time there too..I need to blog badly! I only wish the weather would have been much warmer, we are not fans of 62 degrees.

Looks like you guys had a great time. When we saw the dolphin show Sara loved it but said, "I thought this was DOLPHIN show!" They should call it the "people doing cool tricks show" but then maybe people wouldn't go see it. Anyway, I can't believe you have time to blog and go on vacation and move all at the same time. You are amazing!! See ya soon!
