Day 1 & 2- California

This was obviously by the monkey area. Braydon's eyes are crossed and he looked great in this picture.
We were waiting for a wild animal show and it got pretty warm then. Other than that, the day was very nice weather. Doesn't Justin look great carrying a baby? He loved being able to spend so much time with Mayci.


The top picture is our drive to San Diego. The bottom two are the kids waiting for the adults to get their suits on and go down to the pool. It took about 2 minutes to get the kids suits on! A little bit of excitement!


This is them after one day of playing! If you ever want kids to go to bed without complaining, walk all day through a zoo (after a day of playing in the pool before that!)


So, we made it to California and back in one piece! It was actually a really great vacation and I didn't want to come home! It may take me a few days to get everything posted on here that I want to. So, I'll start with the first day or two! We got to San Diego on Thursday around 2 or 3 pm. The drive was good (all through the night). We played in the pool on Thursday at the hotel and then Friday we got up and went to the San Diego Zoo. The kids enjoyed their day but they were very tired. It was 7:57 pm when they went to bed. It didn't take them long to get to sleep either! Mayci did start that night sleeping through the night! The entire vacation was so nice having her decide that she liked to sleep all night. Friday and Saturday morning she was up at about 5:45 and the rest of the time it was after 7 am! Yes, I enjoyed every minute of sleep! The start of our vacation was great- no arguing and the kids actually got along just great! More to come later!
