Pt. Loma & Coronado

Sorry famly for being MIA on the blog for a week....we were enjoying the sunny weather and wonderful company of the Larmores in San Diego!  We had a full week of fun with Nate, Anita, Katie, Jack and Mandy.

We're back home trying to get in the swing of things after the relaxation and excitement of our vacation, but looking at the pictures makes me want to just re-pack and go back!  And since I took no less than 6,530 (or so, ha!) pictures, I'm going to break up our trip into different posts.

Our travel to San Diego went super smooth, the boys were great on the plane and we were at Anita's house by late afternoon.  Anita's home is amazingly decorated and so comfortable.  We spent the afternoon just catching up and enjoying meeting some of their friends at their Bible study that night.

The next day everyone went swimming at their neighborhood pool, we had an amazing lunch of skirt steak, burgers, hot dogs, brats, etc.  Yum!  We decided to forgo the fireworks since it was overcast that evening and it wouldn't be worth keeping the kids out super late.  Which is good since the San Diego fireworks all went off at once due to a computer glitch and lasted only 15 seconds....hilarious!

Thursday we decided to spend the day exploring the scenic Pt. Loma area and then we headed to one of their favorite beaches in Coronado, with a stop at Chick-Fil-A for lunch of course!  It was a beautiful day, not too hot and nothing but blue sky.  We enjoyed all the military helicopters, submarines, airplanes, etc that flew over the ocean all afternoon.  Benjamin was loving it since he's obsessed with all things airplane, helicopter, tractor, vehicle, etc!  Peter took Benjamin and Katie out to ride the waves.  Ben didn't last long, surprise surprise, but Katie and Peter were out there forever.  I'm really not sure who had more fun between the two, it's one of Peter's favorite things to do.

Here's a few pictures!
