Celebrating Father's Day

This past weekend we had a lot of fun for Father's Day. In the morning, we played the "Par 3" with my parents. It was perfect for taking the kids on since it is kinda like a mini regulation 9. Kristi brought her little set and played once in a while, and Brandon loved chasing after the golf balls and putting them in and taking them out of the hole.

After golf we all came home and the kids had a little quiet time - so, Chad and I hit the pool.

After spending some time together - it was time for the kids to get up and come out and play with us.

After playing in the backyard for the rest of the afternoon, we all went to my parents house for a nice surf and turf dinner. Everyone dined on steak, lobster, crab, shrimp, baked potatoes, corn and salad. Yum! It was another great Father's Day.

California Dreamin'

This past weekend, our family went on an awesome vacation to San Diego. We went to Sea World, Legoland and Belmont Park. We all had a blast.

This is the plane ride to California - the kids did an amazing job on the plane.

The mini van that carried us everywhere.

The view out of our Harbor Suite room. From time to time there was a seal that would swim up and down the slips barking - too cute.

The first night in California we ate at El Indio which was featured on Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives. I must say - Guy Fieri doesn't know good Mexican food.

Sea World!

Kristi and I got a chance to feed the dolphins while we were there. I felt so bad for them - they all had scars all over their bodies and the pool that they were in seemed really small.

Here we are feeding the seals and sea loins. The birds there are really aggressive and tried taking the fish everyone was throwing at the seals and sea lions.

Shamu! He was Kristi's favorite. We all loved watching him do a show for us while we enjoyed a nice buffet lunch.

It's time to lounge and swim!

Legoland was fun - but I wouldn't do it again unless the kids were older. Brandon only got to ride on 3 of their many many rides. So, for most of the time Chad and I took turns taking Kristi on rides.

Our last night there we ate at a place called Luigi's At The Beach. They had HUGE slices of pizza that were soooooo yummy. Do you think they would deliver to Colorado? ;)

Right across the street from Luigi's was Belmont Park. It is a boardwalk on the beach that has shops, restaurants, carnival rides and games. Very fun!!!
