Our Family Vacation

Every Year for Summer Vacation, we try to make it out to California. This year we made it solely a beach vacation with the exception of attending a Padres Game and the small Scripts Aquarium since it is just up the street from our Hotel. We started out trip on a Tuesday. Zak, Hay, Kam and Chris and I packed up the car and headed to Vegas. We spent the night there and played in the pool at the Excalibur. Its a fun, cheap place to stay and has great pools for lounging and for the kids. When we got there, I was pleasantly surprised with the weather. It was about 105 degrees, overcast, and was not too darn HOT! The worst part though was that the water in the pools were COLD!!! Too Cold for me. But the kids enjoyed it anyway.

The Next Morning, we packed it up and headed to Arizona. We met up with two of my sisters, Ann Marie and Chanell(with baby Chandlar) at my grandmothers house, they had Brittany and Jace with them so we were our complete family again(HA!). She will be 92 this November, and I just cant believe it! She still has spunk. Im glad that all my kids got to visit with her for a while and hopefully we will get to see her again soon. After visiting with Grammer, we headed to our hotel where my other Sister Jessie, and her kids(Addie, Jenna, Kinley, and Nolan) joined us for a dip in the pool. Once again, pleasantly surprised at the weather for August. I thought we were all going to die of heat, but it was great. I wish I had my camera at the pool this day, but I didnt. If I did, I would have gotten a picture of Addie beating the crap out of Jace everytime he said, lets race across the pool. It was hilarious. She is a great little swimmer and I wish I could see her and Jenna in a Syncro Show. Maybe soon. After swimming we stopped at the mall in Chandlar to eat some grub, and because you cant find a Cinnabon in Utah anymore, we had to get some of those for dessert. YUMMY!! We said our goodbyes and our hopes to see eachother soon and then got some good rest for the next day.

Thursday Morning we got up, headed out, and began our journey to our final destination! CALIFORNIA!!! We love it there! I could definately never live there, but I enjoying the beach, the water, the atmosphere for a short while. We even talked about getting a time share to beable to go every year and not have to worry about booking and finding hotels. Our first night there, we checked into the hotel, and headed to Old Towne San Diego for Dinner. We love the restaurants here, especially the Cafe Coyote! The kids get their menu, color it, and then turn it into their candy store for two free pieces of candy from their candy barrels. All I can say is YUMMY!!!! They had the Sunkist Gems there that My Grandfather Webb absolutely loved and always had everytime we went to his house. I had to buy a pack of those that night. Friday, we got up, went to the beach and lounged until about 4 when we had to head back and get ready for the Padres Game. This was a blast. The boys love it, it was 5 for 5 night so everyone got a hot dog, drink, peanuts, popcorn, and cookies for 5 bucks. Later, we splurged and got some cotton candy too. Whats a baseball game without all those goodies!!! It was a great game too, They played the Mets, and ended up winning with a Grand Slam Walkoff Homerun. A perfect night to go to the game, with them winning, then FIRE WORKS after a win like that.

Saturday, we decided that we would go to the Aquarium, it is small, but the kids enjoyed it the same. Unfortunately, its so small it doesnt take up much time so we attempted to find something else to do. That didnt happen so we ended up back at the beach. After that, we decided that the beach was where we just needed to stay. And so we did, all the way to Monday. Monday was our last day at the beach, so we ventured to the Pier at Oceanside to grab an ice cream, and see what we could see from the pier. All we got to see was a Pelican, nothing else. It was a great 5 days in San Diego this year and we cant wait to go back again.

Tuesday morning, we packed it up and headed to Vegas. We once again hit the pools and then ate and went to bed. The kids were pooped, we were pooped, and we had an early rising awaiting us cause Chris had a show that Wednesday. So we got up, and headed home Wednesday, then headed to his show. That was a fun time as well. I will put pictures for that later.
