Camping in San Diego

This weekend we went off for a camping trip with Dustin, Michelle, and their family. We camped at Mission bay, in San Diego. It was a lot of fun! But it wasn't fun trying to keep dirt off of the kids. Every time we changed their clothes they would fall down again in the dirt. I got so bad that I stopped letting Savannah even walk in the dirt. She got really excited when I finally put her down in the tent and let her use her own feet again. The kids loved the playground. I'd never seen anything like it before. It was big enough to literally keep them busy all day long and strong enough for big kids to play on it too. Here's Savy enoying it.

This was my first time camping with Greg and the kids. Chase liked sleeping in his sleeping bag. This was his second time camping. Our first day there we walked around the place and at night we cooked hot dogs and ate smores. The next day we went out to the bay and the kids (the big kids too) played in the water and sand. Chase was a little afraid to jump off of the diving platform, but he enjoyed swimming. Next, we headed to the pool which was very comfortable. The weather was nice because it stayed about 70 degrees day and night. So it was perfect!

We got dressed and tried to stay clean to go to Old Town San Diego. We made it there and had a good time. We ate at a fun Mexican restaurant. I had the best fish tacos ever--I was craving them all weekend so we had to get some. We all also ate tons of candy from the old Candy shop. We are not big sugar eaters so it is still affecting us.

Here's Greg after telling Chase this canon story:

On our third and final day, we went to La Jolla shores to hang out with one of Greg's friends. The beach is ideal for anyone wanting to learn to surf. The waves are long and not too big.

Thanks Michelle and Dustin for planning such a fun camping trip. We'll have to do it again very soon.
