A Week at the Beach!

We had one week of relative quiet in the house.  Noah was gone at scout camp and Adam was gone for 2 afternoon/evenings for cub camp.  It gave me enough time to clean, sort and pack for our next trip. 

We arrived in San Diego on Monday the 15th and the fun started and didn't stop until we left.  It was quite an exhausting week, but we loved every minute of it.  After shopping and unloading the car at the beach house we headed down to Pacific beach.

 

 

 An evening favorite thing to do is to walk down to the park and watch the sunset.  I never get tired of watching the sun set over the pacific!


Tuesday morning we headed into Scripps Ranch to pick up our old next door neighbor and go to the beach.  We did that so much last summer it seemed only normal to do the same this go around.  Even though it had been a year it felt like nothing had changed except all the kids are taller.  After a long chat with my wonderful neighbors we headed into one of our favorite beaches, Del Mar.

 The kids came home exhausted and sandy.  We went to go get Lily's haircut and ears pierced at Chloe's.  She has been wanting to do it there for a year, but hasn't been ready.  She was determined to be ready this time and through the tears and then the laughs she finally got her ears done!

After watching another beautiful sunset (better than Monday's) we headed into Pacific beach and ate dessert at the Half Baked Bear.  You can make your own ice cream sandwiches.  It was very good! We may make it a tradition.
