San Diego Zoo, Sea World and Visitors, Hooray!

A couple weeks ago our friends Jeremy, Arabeth and their daughter Braelyn came to San Diego to visit us. We had so much fun while they were here! It was just a bummer Nathan was working so much he barely got to hang out :(
While they were here we took our first trip to the World Famous San Diego Zoo (since we moved). I was purposely waiting for their trip before we visited, because the last time we came to the zoo was with them on vacation when Julia was only 4 months old! So we wanted to make our next trip with them as well. But this time I knew it wouldn't be as long in between trips and I went ahead and purchased a season pass.




Julia and Braelyn


Braelyn had her whole face painted with a beautiful butterfly and Julia really wanted hers done as well. We decided a little heart would be best, though ;)


We also got a Sea World pass this past week.

And, yesterday, my Uncle Matt, Aunt Melissa and their three kids drove over here from Palm Springs where they're vacationing to visit us. We went to the beach and the zoo. It was so much fun and Julia loved having Ruby to play with.


They especially loved burying Mason together


And then they buried Nathan. Nathan was able to meet us at the beach after work. Yay! (He's been working so many hours, we hardly get to see him!)

We love our friends and living in beautiful San Diego!

I love San Diego!! I'm jealous you get to live there and we just get to visit every once in a while :). You look great and your kids are adorable.
