Fall Break

We decided to do something really crazy this Fall Break so we headed to San Diego. And that's not the crazy part...we took Steve with us! Usually Steve doesn't get to vacation with the family but since he's been a good boy we decided he could come with us. (And he decided he should take a few days off work!)

The day we arrived in San Diego, Andie and I dropped Steve and Haley and Brooke off at the San Diego temple to perform baptisms. Andie and I scouted out cool beach places to take them when they were done. On our way back to pick up the girls and Steve, Andie said, "This is the most fun I've had in a long time."

Steve forgot a tie but they still let him in!

We missed Rylee!

We went to the San Diego Zoo, amazing place. Andie has now decided that she's going to be a vet! We've looked up schools, how much it will cost, what she needs to do to prepare for her DVM, etc. The girl is focused!

They were our favorite!

We also toured a really cool air craft carrier where we got to see and hear some really neat things about fighter pilots. The girls were less than thrilled but Steve had a great time!

I think my favorite part was playing on the beach. We threw around a frisbee, made a sand castle, ran in some waves and generally just had a great time.

It's not soccer Haley...

What made it super fun was the fun we had together, the inside jokes we now share, the memories made by watching a snake eat a tiny rat and Andie wanting to go inside the temple someday. I'm grateful for time away from the busy world where we are able to spend quiet (well...not in the car) time together and enjoy each other's company.
