San Diego!

We dropped everything, and went to San Diego for a weekend! I've been whining to Cory (and yes, I admit, it was whining) that it seems like everyone else gets to go have fun, we always stay home, because we're too cheap/boring/busy/uber-practical. I was feeling jealous about everyone else's Hawaii/Disneyland/Tahiti/Italy/(you get the picture) vacations, so he gave in, and took us to San Diego. And it was fun! We went to Sea World and Cabrillo National Monument - and it was 70-75 degrees the whole time! Bliss! Especially after the 20-30 degree weather we've been having at home. I even got a little sunburned.


This is us at Cabrillo National Monument - it was beautiful there.

L and E touching starfish at Sea World.

I love this picture! I got lucky, because I don't usually take cool pictures like this. That's a sea turtle and a grouper in the tank. The grouper was huge - 400 pounds or so.

And Cory and Q at Cabrillo. She was such a trooper! In fact, she was the easiest kid the whole trip. Such a cutie!

L quote: "There it is - Sea World!" Said with extreme reverence and awe.

E quote: "I don't want to go home! I want to stay in Sea World!"
Me: "But Cosy and Rex (the cat and fish) will miss you."
E: "Nothing misses me at home, because nothing is mine! Rex is L's and Cosy is yours! I have nothing!"
