September Vacation!!



We just got back from San Diego after a long awaited trip!!
We had to keep postponing it because of the mess at my office.
The first day we played at La Jolla shores for a while. Trey had fun boogie boarding and getting buried in the sand by dad. Coby was not a fan of the sand, but still enjoyed himself. Mark held him out in the water and put his feet in and that was close enough for him. That night we took grandma out to our regular spot...Point Loma Seafood. It was for her 80th Birthday which is the 12th.
That evening Coby took a nice spill into one of grandma's tables. He has a nice gash in the corner of this mouth and his chin got cut up too.
Friday we went to Sea World. We had just seen all shows last visit so we only went to the Clyde and Seamore show (it was closed before). The boys loved it, especially the little otter.
Trey was very excited to go on the rides with Mark. He had fun playing in the new Sesame Street area. There were new rides, one of which was a spinning one like the teacups at Disneyland. Mark was spinning him so fast he couldn't keep his head up! He was laughing so hard, but I was thinking he is going to be sick. I was right, he heaved into the trash can by the dolphins...poor boy, but he was ready to keep going.
That night Mark and Trey went to the movies and Coby and I stayed back with grandma.
The next morning we hit the swap meet and then went back to the house to relax. After Coby's nap we headed up to Point Loma to see the Cabrillo Lighthouse. Before the park entrance is the military cemetery, there were so many headstones all lined up. What a reminder of our servicemen/women and their sacrifices. We walked down to the tide pools, which are covered this time of year because of the high tide. We walked around on the rocks and the boys went on the shore. Then we walked up to and explored the lighthouse. The panoramic view of the city was amazing.
That night we went to North Park to a Chicago pizza joint. It had really crunchy crust and was yummy!
We made it back home at a decent time and are getting ready for the new week.
I start my first full time child for daycare tomorrow!! I am excited for the new adventure and opportunity to stay home.
