Spring Break!


This year for spring break we decided to go to California again. The beach was calling my name! I am a little homesick and so I just had to go.
We rented the same beach house we stayed at in November. I love, love it! There is something amazing being able to wake up to the sound of the waves and watching dolphins while eating your breakfast!

My Yukon is no longer big enough to fit the whole family so we had to rent a 15 passenger van! Yeah baby, even bigger than the one we had before. But Zach brought two of his friends on the trip with us and I was worried about it being crowded with those big boys!

We even rent a uhaul to tow behind the car. Cause we bring so much crap and so we need the room! People were totally mocking me about the dang uhaul, but hey, I had the baby's swing, her exersaucer, her playpen, tons of luggage, kids toys etc. We brought all the comforts of home.So even though we were ridin ghetto it was awesome!

The boys were funny the whole ride there. They were having a dance off in the car. It was shakin like crazy! made me a little nervous. They kept everyone entertained and the drive went pretty quick.

We got to Cali early evening and stayed the night at mom's house since we couldn't check in till the afternoon the following day.



To kill time before leaving for the beach house Tony bet the boys some money if they would get in the pool! Idiots did it! FREEZING!!!!We had a good laugh over the girlish screams coming from them.Dumb and dumber right? Luckily they had the jacuzzi all heated and ready to go so they could warm up after and the little ones decided to get in with them!


The time finally came and we left and headed down to the house to check in! YEAH!!
I love everything about this place! Check out the view from the kitchen table! Does life get any better than this?
I could hardly wait to get my toes in the sand and pick up a good book. I swear I could feel the tension leave me as soon as we got there! Weird I know!
The vacation did not disappoint! I think it was the best vacation we've ever had!
I have lots more pics so I'll post more on it later.
man I miss California already!

Wow your family looks like a blast! I love doing the big trips together (we have a VW Eurovan called the Party Van). We're hitting Oceanside in June. Wish we were closer!

I'm soooo glad you guys took a vacation and had such a great time! Even though I live here, I'm super envious of that view too. Btw, you're smart for taking the U-haul girl.
