Legoland

Since Tim and I work during the week we really try to make the most of the time we have as a family on the weekends, especially on Saturdays that Tim does not have to work or coach Little League. Last week we were trying to figure out what to do on Saturday. We really wanted to use our Disney annual passes again before it really starts to get crowded, but we realized that Saturday was one of our blackout dates. I've had a coupon for Legoland sitting on my dining room table for weeks now, so I mentioned it to Tim. He thought it was a good idea. We haven't been to Legoland since we met up there with some friends who were down on vacation. At the time Grace was a little over a year old and really couldn't ride anything. So Saturday we headed out to Legoland.

It was such a fun day. Grace was tall enough to ride a majority of the rides. There was one ride that she had her own seat and Daddy sat behind her and there was even one ride that she had to ride alone! She is such a daredevil. She loved everything! She was such a good girl too. She is a pro at standing in lines now, since we have been taking her to amusement parks and stuff. She even did great at telling me she had to go potty, holding it until we could find a restroom and going potty in the public restrooms. She is getting so BIG!















































Wild Animal Park

We are so lucky to live in San Diego! There are so many fun things to do. A couple of weeks ago we decided to venture north to the Wild Animal Park. We go to the zoo all of the time, so we thought it would be a nice change to check out the Wild Animal Park. We had fun taking the safari ride and seeing all of the animals roaming around. Here are some great pictures, ENJOY!

Heat Wave

We had a heat wave this weekend, with temperatures in the high 90's.We took full advantage of the hot wether and did lots of fun stuff. On Saturday we packed a lunch and head for the beach. A lot of people had the same idea, the beaches were packed! We found a nice shady spot next to a playground at Mission Bay. We had lunch, played in the sand and splashed in the water. It was a blast! Grace fell asleep on the way home and ended up sleeping for 3 hours so I took that opportunity to take a nap myself, it was glorious! When she got up we filled up her little pool in the backyard and tried to stay cool by splashing around out there. After dinner we finished off our hot day by going out for ice cream. It was such a great day!


On Sunday after church we decided to go to Victoria's gardens to pick strawberries. Grace was being a little prissy, she didn't want to pick the strawberries herself, but she gladly pointed them out to Daddy and made him pick them. It was funny.

It was such a great weekend. My life is so blessed!












The Wiggles


I am a little behind on my posts, sorry.

A couple of weeks ago we went with Kelly, my mom, Tristan and Hailey to see The Wiggles. I don't particularly care for them and Grace has only seen them on TV a couple of times, but Kelly got some great seats to the show in Los Angeles so we went. The kids were mesmerized by it all and they had a great time. Here are some cute pictures.
