Oceanside

It seems like the only time I post these days is after the weekend, but sometimes nothing too exciting happens during the week and we have really good weekends I guess.. lol. Well, this last weekend we got to tag along with Husband's parents and little brother to Oceanside, we also spent a day in San Diego! It was a lot of fun!

While we were in San Diego we went to the USS Midway, Husband and I went to the Midway on one of our honeymoons, but as we all know, Husband loves airplanes so we didn't mind going again. We also got to see parts of it that we were unable to see before, so that was really neat too. It's fun to hear him tell us all about what he's learned from work and just over the years.

The next stop was the Mormon Battalion Historic Site. This was probably one of my favorite parts of the trip. It was really neat! The visitor center thing is really interactive and cute. I got to dress up as a Mormon Battalion Soldier, I guess usually it's a little kid, but our group didn't really have any kids, so I stepped up to the plate. The center had kiosks where you could look up your MB ancestors, that was really neat. Husband and I both have ancestors that were on the MB. Then you could email yourself the information. They also had a picture booth and you got the pictures for free and you could email that as well! There were also games. And we got to pan for gold!

(this was our free picture, sweet huh?!, we also got a group picture, but I'm not sure where that one got emailed)

After that we went to "Old Town" it was a bunch of shops that of the 1800s era. That was fun, but I forgot to take pictures there.

On Saturday we stayed in Oceanside. Husband took us all sailing! It was really fun. I like sailing a lot better on the ocean (in the harbor) than at Utah Lake. I also found that if I turned so I wasn't facing the front of the sailboat I enjoyed the ride a lot better... I always feel like we're going to tip and crash into the oncoming boats. We took turns on the sailboat, so the boys went first and then the girls went.

After we went sailing we were all pretty tired so we rested for a bit, ate, and then we went and walked the pier at sunset. It was beautiful!

After that we went to the hot tub and relaxed... and got lectured on how we should learn about timeshares, but that's another story in itself.... lol.

It was a great weekend! Thanks Grandma and Grandpa and Husband's family! We had a great time!
