Our hotel was near the temple. It was fun to see it as we would be returning to our hotel. The kids agreed that it looked like a Disneyland Castle, only better.
We went to San Diego on our honeymoon over 14 years ago. It was fun to be there again with the kids.
As soon as the kids and Richard saw the hill next to the temple they threw themselves on the ground and began rolling. Probably not a reverent thing to do at the temple grounds, but they will always remember it. They had just mowed the lawns, the grass was sharp and gave the kids little cuts all over, making them itchy.
Almost all of us, minus Sam taking the picture and Zanna back in AZ.
A nice lady snapped this one for us.
This is a museum at Presido Park, in Old Town San Diego. My family always visited here when we would go to San Diego. It is pretty, green and hilly. Great for picnics.
The twins decided this cool cross looked great for rock climbing. I didn't know they even did this until I loaded my pictures onto the computer. Sam had been following them around snapping shots.
It was a great trip. The kids were amazing. It did not feel like we had 8 kids to take care of, they were so well behaved. No one got lost, except for Daniel on the beach for just a few minutes. Having a big family is a blast! They love each other tremendously and love to be buddies and look out for each other. It is rewarding as their mother to see them making sure the little ones can see or have the food they want or have someone to carry them around when they are tired. And the little guys love to share with the big ones and follow in their footsteps. They are the best kids!

My fun wife makes our family so much fun.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful vacation. It looks like you guys had a blast. I'm used to some more exciting reports from the twins, but I guess the mischeif is decreasing as they get older. Disappointing for me, good news for you , I guess.
ReplyDeleteLove you and your crew and glad you had a blast. Sorry I stole your cd player.

Great picture of you and Richard. You need to have that one framed.
