San Diego, CA 2011

View from our hotel as we checked in!

On Tristan's birthday we went to Legoland.  It was so busy, but fun!

Wade getting his driver's license.

Driving the boats.

Once they got past the place where this picture was taken, it was pretty much a free for all in the water.  Jason and Wade got turned around and were going backwards.  :)


We were sad that we didn't get to see our friends in Vegas this trip, but we did see a mini version made out of Legos!

Look who we ran into there!!

On the cruise


Mom and Dad in front of Mt. Rushmore :)

We really enjoyed this funny, acrobatic, firefighter show.


I didn't take very many pictures at the San Diego zoo, but it was a wonderful experience! That zoo is HUGE!  Here are a few of my favorites!

Look at that wad of spit!

Owen's great view...and notice the shorts and tank top!  We had beautiful weather our whole trip!  Sunny and warm!

Owen and Annika playing in the water!

I'm not sure that I'd seen a giant panda before...

We went to Torrey Pines and hiked on the beach there.





Awesome designs in the sand!

Carebear and her papoose.  He didn't enjoy it!

The cliffs on the water's edge.



The boys (and Jason!) had a great time playing in the waves!




We stayed at Lane and Alesha's house for 3 nights!  They were so hospitable!  Alesha and I were roommates and very good friends in college, but haven't seen each other for about 6 years!!  We loved being with them!!  They had a New Year's Evening party that we had a lot of fun at!  Some played pictionary...

But the true competitors played Dutch Blitz!  Alyssa and Alesha

Owen and Annika gave each other lots of kisses!  They are only 2 months apart.


We thought it was kind of ironic that we spent last New Year's with Cara's brother, Ryan, in South Carolina!  I guess we'll have to continue our Middledorf tradition!  This is Landry, Cara, and Lila.

We had a nice trip home and are happy to be back even though it's cold!!!  :)

This is how the boys entertain themselves on the drive home!  :)
