San Diego

Right after alex's wedding our family took off to San Diego for a visit- it was so nice and warm the first few days we were there and went to the zoo that first day- i forgot how cool that zoo is
First of all - i thought it was so funny how the giraffe drank the water - but also it was so cute i loved the baby giraffe right next to the momma - it was only 1 week old- it so little -sort of - it was 6 feet tall!
Gracie playing with her cousins- one of the best parts of going to San Diego was being able to play with the cousins!
Loved the panda!


The next morning we woke up early to go watch ben learn how to surf- gracie was all ready to go - even though i tried to warn her that the water was going to pretty cold - but she was already to go
She kept holding up her shorts so they wouldn't get wet
Ben surfing- he did so good since this was his first time!
Ahh - i love my little cutie!
A couple days later we went to Legoland- i thought it was going to be silly -but it so cool i loved it there
Everything was made from legos and gracie loved the kitty and wanted a picture with it


Our family with a few extra people - does anyone recognize the little boy and the man in the red shirt- no? well thats because they are lego people - i loved it!
They had this place where everyone could make there own race cars and then you have races with lego cars- this was my work of art
Gracies car- she was so proud of it- even though it didn't really go anywhere
The three of us at the finish line- i won - but then gracie came and plowed me over me!
I loved the bathroom signs!
Fun rides made out of big legos!
Hanging out with the old man
The last day we went to Sea World- and even though it was a little cloudy we still sat in the soak zone!
The scary shark zone!- it was cool you went through an underwater tube and the sharks swam all around us and over us- it was very cool - but since i am not that great at taking pictures none of them turned out
Another soak zone! picture
Gracie with her new whale! - and then a picture of the real killer whale!
We had such a fun trip- it was a lot of fun hanging out with the cousins and then seeing lots of fun sights! -

My Ben would be envious. San Diego is his most favorite place on earth. I'll have to check out Legoland someday. Looks like you had a blast, especially Gracie.

I'll have to show the boys these pictures. They are DYING to save up and go to legoland someday (though they're not very good at saving). Looks so fun!
