San Diego

We decided to take our "summer vacation" a little early this year. We went the end of April because I was afraid I would be fat and miserable by the time summer came around. By going in April I was hardly showing and was still able to move (ha) so it worked out perfect!

We always take a before shot just in case they get lost and I know exactly what they were wearing!

We found a really neat children's museum. They girls loved it! They had plenty for them to do! They had a grocery store, dress up clothes, a ship, bubbles, water tables, and fun things just to create. The girls love watching the videos of themselves!

Then we were on to Lego Land! Now if you ask Gabriel this place was better than Disneyland. I beg to differ! However this park was perfect for the girls! I wouldn't take any kids over the age of 10 unless they are really into legos. The girls are just getting into Legos so it was perfect!

One of Brigitte's favorite rides of course! Violet was very upset she was not old enough to ride this one! 

 The girls love this show on Netflix and we just missed the opening of their new addition by a month. But at least we got to take a picture with the "best friends forever" girls as they call them.

 One of my favorite pictures. They have a huge display of different cities. This one is New Orleans and I was surprised how fasinated she was with each of them!

 Finally getting to play with the legos at the end of the aquarium tour....not really worth the extra money in my opinion if you ever go!

The girls both got to ride their first roller coster and loved it! They first one was a little to big for our thrill seeker Violet and she was very upset. Luckily we found this one that she could ride on and she loved it! She rode it 3 times in a row actually!

We went to Historic Downtown San Diego. We got to go to the church's little history site there and learn about the gold mining they did! They girls loved the funny talking picture frames!

At dinner time Violet got to hear one of her favorite songs "La Bama" from the Mariachi Band.

We got to go to the world famous San Diego Zoo...

Gabriel and I got to get away one night and attend the temple. Brigitte called it the castle temple!

 Sadly the very last day of vacation I got really sick. I don't remember the last time I was this sick. I have no idea what it was either. Not sure if it was the baby or something I ate but it was not fun. So I laid in bed watching a marathon of Criminal Minds and daddy took the girls swimming to all the different pools at the resort. Good thing we didn't have anything planned for that day!

GG got me flowers. It was sad that we had to leave them! I hope one of the maids took them or left them for the next guest to enjoy!

Overall I would have to say this was one of the best vacations we have ever taken! It was so relaxed and we go to do a lot of fun stuff! Thank's GG for inviting us!
