I don't have an excuse at all on why it's taken me so long to update the blog with a post or even put up pictures from our vacation. When I was looking at the pictures of our vacation again, the details are slowly fading from my memory already. So I figured that after a month, I should at least recap the trip.
Carrie and Ryan flew in to Las Vegas on Friday afternoon. We spent Friday and Saturday night walking around to "old part" of the strip and the "new" strip. We got to see a couple free concerts at Freemont Street because it was the CMA awards that weekend in Vegas.

We were watching the Bellagio fountain show and took a pic in front of the Paris hotel
Our San Diego vacation in a nutshell:
We stayed at a gorgeous beach house for 5 days on Mission Beach, San Diego with our friends Ryan and Carrie. The house was only a 1/2 block from the beach. I had never thought about renting a place when planning a vacation, but honestly I think that renting is the way to go, especially if you are traveling with friends/family. It was so nice to be able to buy some groceries for snacks and meals instead of having to buy stuff all the time. It definately saved money. It was also great to have a place to hang out in the evenings to play cards and watch movies.
We got in Sunday evening- watched sunset, got groceries, hung out at the house
Monday- Day at the beach (Mission Beach), went boogie boarding (the water was chilly!!) Walked around Seaport Village. Out to dinner for fresh seafood.
Tuesday- Day at La Jolla Beach. Saw the seal beach, boogie boarded in the waves, watched Brent and Ryan get taken down by the massive waves for an hour :) We went to a Padres baseball game that night at the outdoor field- very fun!
Wednesday- Day at the San Diego Zoo and took tons of fun pictures. Out to dinner at a yummy seafood restaurant.
Thursday- packed up, played Rook at a coffee shop right on a boardwalk next to the beach. Brent and I drove back to Vegas late morning.
Our vacation was so wonderful! We were expecting the weather to be cool and rainy, but it was actually really warm and sunny for most of the trip. Goes to show you to not always trust the weather man ;)
It was so fun to see Carrie and Baby Moorie (6 months along :) )
