San Diego Summer Trip #2

We headed out on summer trip #2 on Sunday, July 28th.  We left after church and stopped at my grandparents house for an early dinner with them.

There were quite a few baby elephants, which the kids loved!

We toured around, and came across this old jail

And an old school house

Then we ate dinner at the Cosmopolitan restaurant...it was delicious!

Timmy and CJ

We got them some suckers...

which they loved! 

We went to the Mormon battalion and learned about the Mormon soldiers that fought in the war

Gracie got to dress up as a soldier...she was the cutest soldier ever!

Then they panned for gold at the end

We ended the night with free Cold Stone Ice Cream, thanks to my dad's friend that gave us the hook up :)

Beach Days!

My brother Mark's family, camped at the beach, so we enjoyed a day with them and dinner afterwards

We celebrated Allie's Birthday at the beach with my whole family (minus Mandy who was in Colorado)

It was a sad night, saying goodbye to Brandon, Melanie and the boys.  They are moving to Philadelphia and we are going to miss them terribly.  I couldn't hold back the tears.  Thus, that's why I'm not photographed!

These boys are going to miss each other! :(
