Last Minute Gettaway

The week before school started we decided to take a quick trip to San Diego.  We found out it is only a five hour drive and couldn't resist the cooler weather.  We had a great time.  We spent some time relaxing on the beach and at the hotel pool.  It was Colby's first time at the beach.  Unfortunately the water scared him pretty bad.  Occasionally the waves would come up by where he was playing and get his feet wet.  He usually ran away crying.  Boy do we have some work to do.  He better learn to love the water soon, given that it is the only activity in Arizona during the hot summer days. 
One of the days we spent at the San Diego Zoo.  It was such an amazing zoo.  Colby had a great time watching all the animals and telling everyone what sound they make.

Colby loved riding through the zoo on the bus.

 

Colby loves his little brother.  If there is ever a time where he is sitting in the stroller by himself, he always points to the baby's seat and says with a sad face, "uh oh, baby!"  He is such a great older brother to Cameron.  We feel lucky to have these sweet little boys.

One of our favorite things to do on the trip was walk along the boardwalk and watch people fish and surf.  There were some fun parks along the beach Colby really loved.  We are so glad we were able to fit a little bit of family time in before Kurt went back to school.
