Yes, I am that Parent...

Who runs to get the camera when their child says, "I stuck!"

San Diego

We took a little time off to visit family, friends and animals in San Diego. My wonderful Aunt Vicki and Uncle Rich welcomed us into their home for a few days and spoiled us rotten, especially Hannah. She had so much fun playing with and/or entertaining them. Aunt Vicki even picked out Dora the Explorer, Sesame Street and Thomas the Tank Engine videos for Hannah. They even watched Hannah for an evening so Chris and I could go out for dinner.
In between our time with Aunt Vicki and Uncle Rich, we went to the Wild Animal Park and the Zoo. Both were great! Before going to WAP we got to have breakfast with our good friends from college, Melissa, Alex, and their 2 boys. For days after our visit Hannah kept asking to play at AJ's house and "Where's baby Miles?" Here are some highlights

Hannah and AJ eagerly anticipating the safari tram ride at the WAP


The one day old baby elephant


Hannah loved feeding the deer in the petting zoo


A highlight for Chris was seeing this red deer (not in the petting zoo)


Her favorite thing at the zoo...climbing on the life size elephant statues

Chowder Time!

At the end of January we made the annual trek to Soledad for the clam chowder feed. I explained the whole thing in my post last year, you can read about it here.

On the way up we saw a beautiful sunset from the 154 highway

Hannah got to cruise in Stellan's sweet ride.

Hannah loved playing with Stellan and Jenna

Preston is a little outnumbered

Fun with Nono

Isn't Preston a cutie?
