San Diego 2012

San Diego is always a week that we look forward to starting in oh, about September. It is such a fun time. It is the perfect vacation away from all the stress and worry of life at home. The kids had been asking when it was "Sand Diego" time for months leading up to the trip. I think we were all anxious for a getaway.

Apparently the girls found something very interesting to the left.

On Sunday after church we always go to La Jolla beach to look at the seals and just relax.

Nope, you can' have her. She is all mine.

It was Addison's first time in the sand. She did okay with it unless it got anywhere near her face, then she screamed and cried.

Kaden and Taycee found a squirrel on the beach that would eat right out of their hands. They were so excited. Kaden had a hard time holding still long enough for the squirrel to get close because he was just so full of excited energy.

We spent 4 days on the beach, playing in the water and soaking up the sun.

Aunt Kathy was so nice to play with Kaden in the water.

Kaden was so brave with the waves. He got pummeled a few times but just got right back up with a smile on his face.

We built a few sand monuments while we were there. It started with a pyramid and then just expanded from there. By the last day we had about 100 feet of the beach taken up with giant sand sculptures.

I didn't get a picture of the shark or the lightening McQueen we made,
