1st Family Vacation

Gabe finally had some time off so we could take our first trip together as a family. What better place to go than San Diego?? We stayed with Scott, Joy and Aiden and had a blast. Saturday we spent shopping at the outlet mall and Sunday we headed to the beach. It was so nice to walk outside and not get blasted with heat. I wanted to spend every waking minute outside!
Gabe and I have been talking about taking Jack to the beach since before he was born. It was great to finally get to take him and watch his excitement. Gabe and I are beach bums (Gabe likes to be in the water and I like to sleep on the sand) and Jack fell right in line with us! Gabe had him in the water so he could feel the waves rush over his feet and then we played on our beach towels while I got some sun. :)  Jack was so great at the beach I was upset we only decided to go one day. :(  Jack played so much he took a 2 hour afternoon nap when we got home!
We had such a great time we were planning our beach trip for next summer on the drive home today.
