Family Vacation...

We went to California for a week on a much needed and anticipated family vacation. I LOVE family vacations. I love to push everything aside and enjoy time with my little family. We love doing the beach thing (who doesn't) and although I tried to think of somewhere else to go, do something different since we always do the beach, nothing else sounded as fun. So off to California we went. I love being at the beach when we are there but I am a big complainer about having to load up an ice chest, pack everything in the car, drive all the way there, having to stay there all day long because your hotel is however far away, doing the whole rinsing and changing before leaving but still managing to get tons of sand in the car. I know it's all worth it because we have done many times but I still dislike a lot of things that come with it. Well I guess my husband got real tired of my complaints because he got us a hotel room smack dab on the beach. Literally steps away. This was our view from our room. It was the most perfect beach vacation EVER! We could go and come as we pleased, put Chase down for naps, make lunch in our room then take it down to the beach, my most favorite part was making dinner in our room while the kids played out on the grass and watching the sun go down with the wonderful ocean breeze. Those moments I will treasure forever. We had such a great time together. I feel so lucky that we are able to make these family memories. They are truly irreplaceable.
