It is NOT the Vegas heat! But This place...
It's what we look forward to all year! We went to the San Diego area with Mark's brother, Zach and his family. They have six kids which are about our kids ages, so it was a party for everyone! The first day we went to the zoo.
The "human" monkeys...
It was fun, but by the end of the day, this is how everyone was feeling! (OK, at least the teenagers)
and Mark was pushing a 5 person stroller because the little kids were tired of walking (and they thought it was fun to ride in the stroller)...
so we called it a day and headed to our hotel on the beach!
It was awesome. We spent the next two days doing this in the morning...
and then when it was lunch time, we would just walk up the stairs to our hotel, swim in the pool and jacuzzi for a little bit,
and then eat lunch on the grass enjoying the ocean view!
after lunch we walked back down the stairs to have more fun.
Mark and Tommy heading out...
and riding in together...
In the evening, the kids watched a movie, while the adults went out to eat. Then we would come home and play games with the older kids.
The last night, when it was late and dark, Mark challenged the older kids to go down to the ocean with him and dive in. So they did it. And then they came back for a dip in the jacuzzi. This is the brave and strong group with their fearless leader! :)
Man it was a good time! Too bad it's back to the real world where it is so hot outside I could cook an egg on the sidewalk. Too bad I have to get up right now and clean this messy house and do laundry. And too bad that the kids keep telling me they're bored! But enough about that, let me just think about this again....
Much better! :)
