Family Vacation

We just got back from our trip to San Diego. We had a fun packed week: LegoLand, Sea World, beaches, pools, and museums. I think the coolest was probably LegoLand which was 30 miles north of San Diego, but well worth the trip. We don't yet have pictures from Sea World or Balboa Park because our camera broke from getting sand in it at Coronado island beach. We did get a disposable camera to capture our fun; it will just take longer to get those pictures.

LegoLand

The mini USA was very impressive. This is NYC.

Children's Museum

San Diego has a great New Children's Museum. Simple ideas, but great creativity! We had a blast, especially the pillow fight room ( a room covered floor and walls with mattresses and filled with tire pillows).



Not behavior I normally encourage, but Tristan balanced his empty lunch plate on his head. I was impressed.

Beach at Coronado Island



Tristan's first trip to a beach.




Like I said, our camera broke after the beach. I will try to get the other pictures up later if we can get them in digital format.

Happy 4th of July!

We went to Davis for the 4th of July celebration and fireworks show. We had a picnic dinner at the park, played on the playground, met up with friends, listened to some bands, saw some sky divers, and of course watched the fireworks. It was a great celebration. We are glad we made the drive.

More family fun

I also got Friday off of work after our paid trip to Six Flags (I love my company!) so I decided to do something special with the boys. So we went to the space museum.





Fun at Six Flags!

We all went on a trip to six flags last Thursday (paid for by my work, what a treat!). It was a long day, but we had a great time!




JR at the sting rays.

Tristan LOVED the penguins.



JR got a little penguin kissy action ;)


JR flying Harold the Helicoptor.


JR's favorite part of the day was the go carts with James. He LOVES racing!

We got to see the dolphins swim right infront of us.

It was very cool. I think I enjoyed it more than the boys.

What cute brothers!

Random things

Just a cute picture of the boys.


JR in his summer sports camp. It was only a week long. Now he is doing an engineering camp (I know, but I couldn't resist!)

JR for the lay up.

I took JR out for pizza after his sports camp was over.

At the midwives potluck

JR the photographer

JR has recently found a new interest in taking pictures. Here is some of his work.







Graduation pictures!

Doesn't the graduate look handsome? He dressed himself.

Proud graduate!
