San Diego Family Vacation
My parents took us a week before Christmas to California for our Christmas present. We had so much fun! We went with my sisters too! I've never seen my boys so happy!
Thanks mom and dad!!

We drove down to Vegas and stayed our first night there. The boys were awesome on the car ride down. They just slept and watched movies! Thanks Stacie for hooking us up with the hotel and breakfast!!



Waiting for our cars to go to dinner

The M&M Factory

They had a cool 3D video

Grandma and Grandpa surprised the boys with Mickey Mouse sweatshirts!

We stayed at the Lawrence Welks Resort in Escondido California. The weather was amazing in the 70's. It got up to 80 degrees the day we left to come home. Believe me we did not want to come home! It had several pools, water slides, hot tubs, clubhouses. We had our own 2 bedroom and 2 bathroom condo. It was awesome!

Ethan, Stacie, and Alec swimming the first day

Ethan was so excited that he was tall enough to ride the waterslide!

Cute Alec all wrapped up in his towel

Ethan had to wear his goggles. That was the only way that he would go down. He couldn't get enough of it. He would scream like a girl the whole way down and love every minute of it.

San Diego Beach
It was cold, but beautiful!




We went to Anthony's and had our favorite fish and chips!


Ethan was obsessed with playing the Wii and X-box at the clubhouse.
Josh got in on the fun too!

DISNEYLAND!!
This was our boys first time there! They had so much fun! We were worried about bringing a 2 year old there but he LOVED it! We want to go back, our boys still talk about it all the time!
