Well..... Read on and you will see. This is going to be one long post! With all of this family goodness behind us, we are now just barely catching our breath. Hence why I am finally posting about it. As you remember two weeks ago we took off for our vacay in San Diego. We left Saturday and came back Tuesday, in that time we kept ourselves very busy and had a BLAST!
Our first night in San Diego we spent at the beach visiting the sea lions, searching for crabs, and of course making sand angels. Then off to dinner at the Hard Rock Cafe. Coach enjoyed dancing to the music.
We spent our second day at Sea World and boy that was a BLAST!!! The boys enjoyed almost every minute of it and Naphs and I got a kick out of watching our boys enjoy themselves so much.
MONDAY was spent packing in the rest of what San Diego has to offer. First thing in the morning we were off to the San Diego Zoo. After visiting the San Diego Zoo I don't know if I can ever go back to the Hoogle Zoo. The boys didn't seem to enjoy one animal over the other. Me on the other hand, I got a HUGE kick out of the polar bears. SERIOUSLY, I LOVE polar bears and the bears at the zoo gave me the show I was hoping for. One of the bears would swim under water to the far side of the pool once there he would come up for a breath drop into the water on his back then swim on his back until he reached our viewing window. Once there he would do a swim flip against the window and do the trick again. I could have watched him do that all day. I really do have a thing for polar bears!!!
After the zoo we headed to the Air and Space Museum. Ashie has an afinity with anything to do with airplanes and or space, so we had a good time there. Since the day was still young we headed off to the beach. Naphs and I had a blast playing in the water, the boys on the other hand didn't even want to dip a toe in it. They did however enjoy the beach and all of the sand. SERIOUSLY, I have never seen the boys so dirty in my life. Unfortunately our beach time was short lived because Ahsie had a mega blow-out that forced us to throw out his beach shirt and towel. After our fantastic visit to the beach we quickly went to our hotel room showered up and then off to the beach again to have dinner on a pier and an evening spent watching fisherman and surfers. To end our evening we headed over to the temple took a few pictures then went out for ice cream. What a great evening! The next day we got on plane and headed home.
Once we got home the race began. Tuesday night was spent hanging out with family that came in from out of town. Wednesday Naph's and I went to work while Glama took Ashie to the doctor to get his cast removed. After work Naph's and I headed off to B's and Itsy Bitsy's wedding dinner. It was a great evening!
Thursday was the big day, B and Itsy Bitsy were sealed together as a family for Time and All Eternity. It was a very good sealing and Itsy Bitsy looked gorgeous. The evening was spent at the wedding reception. It was a beautiful reception, every last detail was perfect! Friday was a down day for the family so we spent it shopping for baby shower presents and food, while the cousins spent the day playing. That evening we had family pictures, which were impossible to take because the kids were SICK of having their pictures taken. The rest of the evening was spent hanging out as a family.
Saturday morning was spent with more shopping and Nersey's (my baby sisters) baby shower. Ah more family goodness. We had a good showing from our aunties and cousins at the shower. You would think with all of the family engagements we had that week they would have skipped out on one or another event, but they were all there for each of the events. I love that my extended family supports and loves my family so much.
You would think after all of this fun we would have gone home and passed out, but no there was plenty more fun to be had. Once I got home from the shower Ashie was off to a friends birthday party, where they played and went on a treasure hunt together. After the party we headed to Lagoon for a evening of fun with our Boston cousins. Lagoon is so much fun with the little ones, we will definately be taking the boys back next year!
Our week of family goodness ended with a baby blessing. Sunday Nersey and Cookie Monster blessed there little baby boy! He is a sweet little baby with parents who love him deeply. Cookie Monster gave a beautiful blessing and the after party was full of yummy food and good peeps.
Wow what a busy week, we Davi seriously know how to pack it in!
