California........knows how to party!

For our first Summer adventure we went to California.  We were blessed to get some airline tickets to wherever we wanted but decided to spend them visiting family!

So we jumped on a plane and headed to San Diego, CA to visit Justin's paternal grandma and grandfather.  We visited about 3 years ago and did all the local theme parks, so this year we had a few different things we wanted to see and some repeat ones!  Mostly we wanted to enjoy some quality time as a family.

Some of the sites and sounds we participated in was..... of course Seaworld!

Birch Aquarium

Santa Monica Pier

USS Midway (air craft carrier)

Trevor loved doing the audio tour and climbing in the jets, helicopters and more!
Whale Watching (our attempt to ..... we only saw dolphins and sea lions)

Newport Beach Whale Watching tour....

Beaches, beaches and more beaches!
Carlsbad beach

Newport Beach
Coronado Beach
But mostly we spent time with Grandma Gail, Grandpa Jim and Flash the dog!  Went on a walk around the neighborhood, Putt Putt, home cooked dinners, and quiet (lol) chats on the patio!  We are so blessed to have such caring and loving family.  I hope that Trevor treasures his family and the opportunities to spend time with those that love him to pieces. 

It was super nice to get away for a while but I will admit coming back took me a bit longer to adjust this time!  But Trevor didn't skip a beat, ready to head back to Summer school.  I dove into party planning mode for his birthday.  So be ready for that next adventure.........
