Vacation Part 1

We just got back from our summer vacation trip to San Diego.  It will take me a couple of posts to share all of the pictures. 
Here's Olivia having a cooking and watching a movie in bed.
 Something I would really only let her do while we are on vacation! :)

On the first day of our trip we drove half way and stopped at a hotel for the night so the journey wasn't too long for our little travelers.  This was a great idea!  We played in the pool for the afternoon then had a nice dinner!  Natalie finished swimming lessons and is doing great in the pool.  She got to show off her skills here.

Jumping in!


Here's Miss Olivia enjoying the steps.

She should be a baby swimsuit model, dont you think?!? :)

One day in SD we went to the Zoo.  It's a great zoo and the girls loved seeing all of the animals. 
Here are Natalie & Nana on the zoo train.

And, Olivia, mommy & Natalie on the zoo train.

This is a big zoo and there is a lot of walking and a LOT of hills.  Here's everyone trekking up a hill. 

Fun at the Polar Bear exhibit

Here are the girls playing play-doh in our cute little beach cottage

One day we went for a bike ride along the beach.  We stopped and had lunch by a park first. 
Olivia was pretty much running everywhere we went on this trip.

On our walk home from dinner one night we found a English telephone booth.

Olivia playing a matching game while everyone relaxed

We did some shopping and Natalie picked her Kindergarten backpack. 
Wow!  Can't believe it's almost time for school to start.  As usual, the summer went by way too quickly. 
More vacation pics soon!
