Family Trip To San Diego

I've been telling the girls we would go to Lego Land and Sea World for the last couple years.   Finally while up at 4am giving Max a bottle this summer I impulsively (while sleep deprived) booked the trip.  Kids all did awesome on the flight.  Max was a perfect traveler.  The weather in San Diego in November was amazing.   Loved the sunshine!

Emily was amazed that the whale came to see her

Ellery had a visitor in her photo

Photo Bomb!

Sleeping...this is what he did for much of the trip.  No complaints here!

Then it was time to relax at the hotel. We stayed at the Bahaia located right on Mission Bay.  It is super close to SD and Sea world.  Great place for families! 

Cabana's on the bay.  You can also see the Bahaia Belle Stern wheeler that takes nightly cruises.  We didn't get a chance to go on one though.

Summer in  November!  Emily & Ellery

We also went to Lego Land and while we were in town we saw some friends from Portland and college who had relocated to SD.  Very tempting with that amazing weather and beautiful beaches.

Wow, thank goodness for car seat bags otherwise these characters wouldn't have made it home (not talking about my family).  Emily won her purple minion all on her own.  Andy then spent a lot of $$ to try to get Ellery to win one of her own, then he tried to win it for her, and finally after deciding to walk out of the park becuase of her meltdown Andy tried one more game and won both the pink and green bears.  Now everyone was happy!

Later at our friends home Emily passed out on their couch.  Good party!!
