Spring Break 2011 in California....

When the kids got home from school on Friday we surprised them with a 5 day vacation to California. We had their bags packed and were ready to go. They were surprised and very excited!

The Beach... It was a great day to sit and read a book on the beach...

or dig in the sand.

But we would not recommend getting wet

It's so cold and takes a long time to dry off.

Off to SEAWORLD...

Scott, Max, and Sam were the only ones brave enough in our party to take the chance of getting wet. It was too cold of a day for Rachel and I to be walking around SeaWorld wet.

Yep they all got wet. Max got really wet and was really cold but they all said it was worth it.

This was so fun to sit out here all by ourselves and watch the dolphins swim around us.

SOUVENIRS

And for Max he kept his money!!

The kids had an awesome time and were so appreciative. I was so grateful to not have to sit and watch the snow fall out my front window and to be able to get away as a family for our Spring Break.

Thanks Scott you are the BEST!!
