San Diego Vacation

We just completed our Watson family vacation in San Diego and it was a blast. We rented a house with four bedrooms and four bathrooms that fits all ten of us so well and we had a great time of relaxing and having fun.

We started the week off at Sea World and took Kiefer on the big roller coaster, he wasn't really ready for that much fun :)

We then went and watched Shamu and a few of us sat down real close and got wet in the soak zone.

The kids loved the Sesame Street themed water park area and had a great time splashing in the fountains. My favorite pics are this Cooper action sequence...

The second day we hit the beach for some sand castle building and playing in the water. That night we all went to a Padres game and sat in the benches behind the fence that had a play area for kids. They got some more sand time and also enjoyed playing on the kids baseball field and rolling down the hills, basically not much actual baseball was watched.

Grandma put together lots of fun activities and crafts for the kids including a treasure hunt that the grandkids loved.

On Wednesday we went to the Hotel Del Coronado for brunch and met up with Elisa's parents for their anniversary.

The food was fantastic and we had a great time celebrating.

The guys then golfed the Coronado course and the women and children proceeded somewhere else to shop. The rest of the week included more beach time and some antique shopping (not pictured for fear of really boring you to death). We made sure to hit the lions for the traditional shot, the boys are getting bigger!

For the drive home we packed all the kids into the van and they loved being together for the drive, such a great time!
