Fall break in San Diego

So while Bailee and Bryce had their fall breaks this year we decided to go to Goood ol California! We had soo much fun. I love these trips where we dont really plan anything, its just do what we feel like and alot of relaxing. The only thing we had planned was to go to the san diego zoo. We left arizona on wed afternoon and got to our hotel that night and of course that was the hightlight of our time in cali. The kids just always wanted to go back to the hotel to play. Its amazing the little things that can make my kids happy.

So thursday we ended up at mission beach where the kids got to play at the park and the weather was PERFECT. then we headed down to sit at the beach for a while but my kids arent too fond of the water so we decided to go get some lunch. Of course we had to spend some quality time in the major chlorine filled pool. The that night we ended up in old town sandiego and i had never been there so that was fun to see the historical buildings and the cute little shops.

Us at the beach for 5 minutes!!

Cute preggo pic, I actually look kinda skinny!!




Friday is when we ended up at the zoo and that is seriously the best zoo ever. We were there all day and got to ride the sky ride thing and the tour bus around the park and of course alot of walking.The most amazing part of this zoo trip was the 4 week old gorilla!! Talk about the cutest thing ever, Bailee could not stop talking about that baby all weekend. The fun thing about this gorilla was that when we got to see the baby it was the first showing hes ever had to the public. There was also plenty of other babies at the zoo and lots of other amazing animals.

Baby Gorilla only 4 weeks old!! Look at that hair.

What a cute panda bear.

The family on the skyfari ride, It was so high.


While we were in old town san diego there was soo many mexican food restraunts that i really wanted to eat at and Mike absolutely hates mexican food and i could eat it for every meal. So he compromised with me and told me that saturday for lunch we could eat at one and he would suffer through it(i always get my way...jk) we had so much fun that weekend the kids were soo good. Now bryce always talks about not liking our house he only wants to live in a hotel.
