The House and Hanging Out

We had a great time on our Carlisle Family trip to San Diego this summer! We caravaned to California and stayed a house in Carlsbad. It was a beautiful home and there was plenty to do!


Most of the munchkinsWe had to keep a close eye on these two! Ayden kept putting the moves on Taylor. We found them snuggling, holding hands, dancing and kissing throughout the week. Crazy cousins!
The house had a large grassy area. We spent some afternoon time playing volleyball and racquetball. Cute little "Guagorator"

Janae and her two oldest, Mason and Avery


Colby was hooked to Nicole's and Shaun's hips! Kipp and I had it easy only having one child on the trip since Colby practically adopted new parents!

Nic and Cael-bear

This is a really crumby picture, but I had to include it anyway! We rented Just Dance while we were there-so funny to watch the boys doing a Russian dance, or a fabulously girly dance! Loved it! And a great work-out may I add?

It has now been documented-Ryan has done dishes at least once in his life!

Janae and Mason-man

We ate like kings all week. This is Shaun trying out the Green Egg to make us some yummy ribs! We all took turns cooking, and I think only ended up eating out once or twice. From breakfast to dessert we had fabulous meals all week!




Beach Bums

We had a great couple of days at the beach-the kids loved it!Nic, Shaun and CaelAveryLots of Frisbee was played-better by some than others!Colby was a little hesitant about the water, but really loved the sand!Mason
Taylor Lane

Guage with snot running down his face-still so cute!


Did I mention that Colby loved the sand?

There was a great grassy area above the beach where we were able to get some good shade and enjoyed our picnic lunches. The kids loved the trees that provided the shadeCute TaylorKipp and Chels

On the 4th we found a park near our house in Carlsbad that was having a celebration and fireworks. We picked up some KFC, enjoyed a picnic and played until the fireworks started.Lettie and Ryan
