Spring Break and the San Diego

We took the kids to San Diego for a few days over our Spring Break. We were excited to see and spend some time with our good friends, the Silvas, and to hit up the San Diego Zoo.  Enjoy!



We stayed at a hotel right across from Balboa park, which is where the Zoo is.  There was this cool kid area with lots of playgrounds.  Here the kids are on a fun go around.  I asked the kid if he wanted to get in and I'd push them and he said no thanks.  Kinley loved it!  Colton wasn't so sure.


Kinley, Andrew and Evan are in the playroom watching Mickey.  We love being able to catch up with our old friends, Ryan and Raquel.
 

We headed to the San Diego Zoo the next day.  It was a gorgeous day and we had a blast.  One of the first attractions was the huge tortoises.   This little guy came right up to us and extended his neck to see everyone.


Colton thought that this gorilla statue was so cool.

 Uncle Andy drove down from LA to spend the day with us and wanted to get in on the turtle action.


 Colton is so into turtles right now.  Luckily, we saw a lot of different ones.

 This giraffe came right up to us to say hi.  The giraffe sitting down is pregnant and was on "baby watch," meaning that the baby could come at any time.

 At the end of the day, we took a bus ride around the park.  We were able to see some things that we didn't get to earlier in the day.
