San Diego

In the beginning of May, we went on a weeklong trip to San Diego with my whole side of the family. My parents rented a beach house in Carlsbad and we all stayed there. It was our first plane ride with Ryder. I made sure to have plenty of snacks and activities for him. I wrapped a couple new toys so he could open them on the plane. He did great! It also helped to have borrowed my mom's Ipad. That kept him pretty entertained.
We had a lot of fun in San Diego! We were able to do ao many things because my parent's bought everyone Go San Diego passes which include admission to a lot of places. Some of the things we did while we were there... San Diego Zoo, San Diego Safari Park, Sea World, swimming at the beach, the Miniature Railroad Museum (Rydser LOVED), Automobile Museum, the Air and Space Museum, and the Children's Museum. Ryder did pretty well without having naps and pretty much no schedule the entire week. He definitely had his moments where he lost it, but that's to be expected! One morning, a bunch of us went to the San Diego temple really early. It has always been my favorite temple, and this was my first time getting to go. It is SO beautiful!
We also had family pictures taken while we were all down there together. They turned out great and I need to get copies so I can post them. I am so thankful to my parents for providing the oppurtunity to spend time together with the whole family down in San Diego. Kevin, Ryder, and I had such a fun time and made a lot of great memories!
