Welcome to Carlsbad! We were able to stay in a condo that belongs to one of my dad's cousins. You could see the ocean from the deck and we drove between 1-2 miles to get to the beach. It was a perfect 2 bedroom-2 bath place. Our family stayed with Brian's family and we all fit perfectly - it was just what we needed.
This was the usual scene....lots of beach time. Several blankets, chairs, umbrella and we were ready to go! My aunt Karen and aunt Arlene came down our first day to beach with us. They also stayed for dinner out at a Mexican restaurant. It was so nice to have that time with them. On Thursday, my cousin John and his family came to beach with us again and the kids had a blast playing together in the sand. Cousin time was at the top of the FUN list!
My ocean babies!
Chase enjoyed paddle ball even if he hit after it bounced off the sand....
Emily really enjoyed jumping the waves.......
Daddy even took each of the kids "boogie boarding"......
Chase tried to stand up......
Then the big boys enjoyed some time in the waves......they did so well!
We did lots of digging....really deep holes and then putting sandcastles together.....
Here was the best one...but we never got water to stay in the moat!
Grandpa had fun burying all of the kids in the sand.....Emily got it good!
We spent a beautiful evening at Seaport Village in San Diego!
Brian, Kim, Chad and I were able to go out for an adults night while grandpa and grandma took over with the kiddos! It was a beautiful night to sit outside and we were extremely gracious for the time out together!
This was one of the sunsets we saw over the ocean. What a sight! It was so beautiful and calming. We LOVED our time at the ocean and can't wait to go back!! Thanks to everyone who made our trip so much fun. We love you all!
