CA Part 2

Next we headed to a beach house in Oceanside for a week with the Holts. I have fond memories of Spring Break trips with the kappas to this very spot, it doesn't seem like that long ago. It was so nice to be there with family.

Amber's birthday our first night there.

Trying to take advantage of all Southern Cali has to offer, we headed over to La Jolla to see the sea lions.

San Diego Zoo

The pandas

Greta and Halle

The whole crew headed to Balboa Island for the day - even the Mammen's drove down to join us. We did it all: rode the ferry over, ate at Ruby's on the pier, rode the ferris wheel, had Balboa bars and looked at all the amazing homes on the island.

Cypers girls and their bubble gum ice cream.

And of course the beach!

First interaction with sand: Elsa jumped like crazy in

my arms until I put her down

and let her have at it.

We couldn't keep Greta out of the waves.

A pit big enough for Halle

and a few more girls.

Beach baby

A little sand in the eye did not spoil her beach day.
