San Diego

We had a great time on our trip to San Diego! We spent most of our time on the beach, and plenty of time eating good food. I think Molly's favorite part of the trip was when a seagull landed on our table at Point Loma and stole Chris's crab cake sandwich while he was up getting a drink. Aggressive little buggers! Claire decided to get back at him by chasing him and growling. My least favorite part of the trip was while we were at Luigi's on Mission Beach and a bum was shouting obscenities at an employee that asked him to stop loitering. Chris diligently engaged Molly in conversation so she wouldn't hear it. But the best part of the altercation was when the bum shouted "I don't want you coming to loiter on my property!" Hmmm.... I think we might be done with Mission Beach, it's a little rough for my taste.



Claire finally got to have her seat forward-facing in celebration of the trip - she didn't seem to care much.




We had to have at least one sand fight per beach day.




The boat ride at Belmont Park. We were hoping to take the kids on the Giant Dipper but settled for this instead :)



We had birthday cake for Chris at Extraordinary Desserts. Definitely lives up to the name!





When I dug this giant "tub" at the beach kids from all around flocked to it!


We went to Balboa Park the last day we were there. We could have spent days there and still not seen it all!

Is that the pizza place that serve the gigantic pizzas? If so, do you remember the night all of us girls decided to eat our giant pizza at the Subway next door...good times!

I have never been to that dessert place. It looks awesome! I hope Chris had a good time on his birthday trip. It was great to see you last week and thanks again for the help moving.
