San Diego

So after Disney we headed to San Diego for 4 days. My mom, brother, and sister flew in from Oregon to enjoy sunny San Diego with us. We rented a beach house right on Mission Beach that was fabulous, inside and out. It was so relaxing going to bed listening to the waves crash and then waking up to ocean, ahhh..we miss it!! We had a great time and spent most of our time on the beach. We played in the sand, built sand castles, ate lunch, walked to Belmont several times, sat in the beachfront jacuzzi, chased waves, watched Chad and Brandon boogie boarding and Alana surfing or trying at least. We had a lot of good laughs!

Talan loved chasing the birds and wanted to catch just one! Jaeden loved spending time with her auntie Alana. They went shopping down the beach one day for about 3 hours, and came home with not one, but two new bikini's for Jaeden!!! We do NOT buy bikinis for J, but somehow she talked her aunt into it and had a smile on her face for days! It doesn't help that everyone there is half-nude and all wearing bikinis!! I told her ONLY beach wear :-) I loved having mom's home cooking and spending some girl time together. We haven't had a family vacation (we missed my bro Mike) in a long time, it was so fun! This will definitely have to be a yearly event.
Surf Rider Beach house...we love it!!

The girls struttin' their bikini's!
Jaeden's always throwing up PEACE signs in photos! Who is she?
