Darren and I left wednesday at 11:30 am to get to Anthem to get hair cuts for the boys and then to get to my brothers house in Buckeye so we would have to leave really early on thursday. When we get about 45 min out of our house we come up on a fire that has just shut the freeway down. They tell us we have to go through Prescott, through Wickenburg. We have never gone that way so we did alittle shopping at the mall and then call 511 and they say the road is open to one lane. So we head back that way and get to Anthem at 4:30 and get hair cuts and leave. When firetrucks pass us and we get to the freeway again and there is a wreck that just happened and closed the freeway. We called our friends and they gave us back roads to take to Buckeye. Meanwhile our DVD player has broken and the kids can't watch a movie. By the time we get to my brother's house it is 8:30 pm. We are tired and have to leave by 5:30 am the next day. That was along drive that wasn't suppose to be that long. We were just hoping that the next day the kids would do good.
My parents, Shane & Siboney-Remy, Natalia, Marissa, Brandt & Becca- Addy, Darren & I-Mason, Chase left Thurday morning to head to California. Tyler & Molli were in San Fransico and were flying to San Diego to meet up with us. We drove past the wind mills and that is when you know you are in California because they have these mills every where. We were meeting up with my Uncle Dale, Karen- Dallin, Shannon, Jake, who live in California. We were staying in Woodfin Suites off of Pacific drive. Close to Del Mar. We went at the wrong weekend because there was alot going on. But our main plan was to do the beach. And that is what we did.
A cool view from the bridge we crossed over.
Here is the bridge. On the way to the beach. That was the first thing we wanted to do when we got to San Diego was hit up the beach.
Mason was so excited to finally get to the beach.
We had gotten to our hotel and they weren't ready so we went to the beach and then changed into our swimming suits.
Chase loved it!!!
Eating lunch on grandma. He is always wanting to be around her.
He loved the birds that flew by, that he would always wave and point.
A little CRACK never hurt anyone. We then realized that he had both legs in one leg of the net part of the suit.
It is hard walking in the sand when you are still learning to walk.
Building the sand castles. When we got back to our rooms we were still sandy and so we went to the pool to get the sand off.
MASON doing one of his many tricks he has.
Darren and Chase getting ready to get in. The pool was cold and with the sun burns that we got it didn't feel to good. That is what happens with us white people who don't get out much. We burn. Darren and I both burnt our backs. My dad burnt his feet and legs that his feet swelled so much that he has been missing work. The sun burns all happened the first day of the trip. But it was still alot of fun that we don't regret any of it except not putting sun screen on the first day.
