Hafen San Diego Trip- Part 3

On Monday, we spent the day having tons of fun at Sea World.  On Tuesday, we packed up, went into a few cool little stores in Del Mar, ate lunch, and then headed home.  The trip was so much fun and we hope that we can do it again another year :)

 Ready for Sea World :)


 Camryn & Mitch in front of the dolphin show


 She was excited for the show to start :)






 Have I ever mentioned that I hate sharks?!


 Camryn's face is hilarious in this picture!  We were under the shark tank...


Paige, Chance, Logan, Kolten, Kashden & Braxton



The Sea Lion & Otter show is always really funny :)





 Here are about a million flamingos.....


 ...... that Camryn was clearly not impressed with!


Camryn and this bird had a staring contest for about 5 minutes



 She obviously wasn't very happy with the Shamu tail headband


 In front of Shamu's tank


 A whale!


Whatever was behind me is apparently much more interesting than Shamu :)



 Ready for Shamu's show!





 A bunch of the Hafens getting soaked


She eventually crashed out





 Camryn REALLY wanted to grab one of these penguins.... watch the video below!


 Having fun at lunch before we headed back home


We had a yummy lunch out on the patio of this restuarant



She wanted to have one of these penguins.... so she yelled and tried to grab them :)

Hafen San Diego Trip- Part 2

On our third day in San Diego, we attempted to take family pictures by the beach and then we spent the day in Old Town and swimming.

 This is the best group picture we could get :)


 Kim & Becky


 Our little family :)  Too bad we're all squinting so badly!




 Some of the kids got to dress up at the Mormon Batallion in Old Town


 Brodeyn & Logan panning for gold


 Ready for lunch at the Cafe Coyote!


I love these eyes!!


 This isn't a good picture, but I had to post it because Camryn is smiling just like my brother Curtis used to!  She's so goofy sometimes haha


 This kid is a true Hafen and LOVES Pepsi!


 They served us 32oz Pepsis!  They were much needed :)


Old Town


 Camryn was mesmerized by these horses


 Apparently ATMs have been around for a long time in Old Town :)


 Camryn and I in front of the cosmopolitan hotel


Old Town


We didn't end up stopping at the temple, but my sister in law Micci took this awesome picture when she was there :)


Camryn couldn't get enough of the Pepsi at Cafe Coyote in Old Town :)
Yes, I'm aware that I'm a bad mother and shouldn't be giving my child soda.

Hafen San Diego Trip- Part 1

Like usual, I'm behind on my blogging!  At the beginning of June, we took a trip with all of Mitch's family down to San Diego.  His parents rented a house a few blocks from the beach for the whole family to stay together.  We had tons of fun over the 4 days and can't wait to hopefully do it again :)  Since I have so many pictures and videos, I'm going to break the trip up into 3 posts.

On Friday, we spent most of the day driving down to San Diego.  When we got there, we checked out the house and went swimming.  On Saturday, we spent most of the day at the beach and in the pool back at the house.

 The view from the front of the house..... that's the ocean just a few blocks down :)


The house was decorated pretty crazy.... like the leopard carpet?


The lovely topless mermaid inbetween the kitchen and dining room...


The front yard/garden


 Camryn was happy to be out of the car after 6 hours of driving!


Logan showing off her jumping skills...


 Her twin Chance wanted to show off his skills too.... he's not quite as brave :)


 I loved getting to run on the beach every morning!


 Family time at the beach..... if you zoom in, Brodeyn looks pretty funny :)


 Brodeyn


 She LOVED the beach!


 She loved the sand.... so much that she even ate some of it!


 Mitch LOVES the ocean.... he really wants to move to California


 My cute nephew Cason





 Chance


 The kids loved the ocean


 Braxton, Kolten & Paige


 She liked the water even though it was FREEZING cold


 This kid loves her dad :)


 Family picture time...
Don't mind me looking gross; we went to the beach right after I ran 4 miles!


 Camryn "helping" her cousin Brax digging a hole


 Amazed by the sand


 Camryn is our little nerd :)  She has a really hard time opening her eyes when it's sunny outside haha



Playing in the sand....
