We just returned for a
fantastic family trip to San Diego, CA. We went for Jason's youngest brother's wedding. We decided to go and stay the whole week and make a fun vacation out of the event. Here are a few photos, and I am working on a slide show I will post soon. We had such a wonderful time - the girls are at a fun age and they loved Sea World, the Zoo, the beach and all the wedding festivities (especially wearing their pretty princess dresses). Mia's favorite part was getting to work with a dolphin trainer to play with a dolphin (Kaloha) and feed her. We are so happy Jordan found a So Cal girl to marry, so we can enjoy all it has to offer. Not long after arriving back to TX, Mia had a breakdown while loading the bags into the car at the airport, and through her tears said she wanted to move to San Diego because it wasn't hot there. Lily would not agree, she is happy to be home. We learned on this trip that she has a very sensitive nose and all of the scents of seafood, the sea lions on the pier at the beach, animal smells at the Zoo, etc. made her sick (to the point of gagging) and she kept holding her nose the whole time. While walking through La Jolla she cried to go back to the car because the beach smelled too bad. At one point Jason asked how she liked San Diego, and Lily's response was, "I don't like it - it smells." And now when she looks at the photos from our trip, she refers to San Diego as "the stinky beach."

Our princesses - at the wedding reception.
Another fun discovery on this trip - our girls are dancing fools. As soon as the music started at the wedding reception, they kicked off their shoes and hit the dance floor. I'm not sure where Lily learned to dance, but she looked like a pro. After the last song played, we had to carry her outside crying because she still wanted to dance. Mia made the rounds dancing with her dad, her grandpa, her cousin Kaiden, and the groom!! So fun, but we were all very tired. We spent the last day playing on the beach with all of Jason's family - we don't see most of them very often so it was fun to all be together.
