Beach trip

Here are a few pictures of our recent family trip to the beach. We stayed in Carlsbad CA for the week and had a blast! The weather was perfect. Our condo was over looking the ocean. My mother in law found the place and rented it for the whole month. Each family was able to stay a week for a really good price. It had two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a full kitchen, family room, and the balcony faced right towards the beach. Perfect location and such a great deal. I'm so proud nobody got sunburnt (except me:) The boys had fun boogie boarding. I was pretty impressed at how well they did. It was great but it's good to be back (although I miss the weather, Riverside is 20 degrees hotter than Carlsbad (it's so HOT)!

On Wed. we went to Sea World (it's been 9 years since we have been there). It was great! Loved all the shows!






We just got home this afternoon and the laundry and unpacking is out of control! I better get to work!!
