California Family Vacation 2012 (Day 1)

This year July 2012, my parents celebrated their 25th Wedding Anniversary! To celebrate this milestone properly we went to California!!

The 7 of us plied into 2 cars, and took the 12 hour road trip to San Diego! 

Right before we hit the road.

We decide to travel at night so that we would get to San Diego and spend the entire first day on the beach.  

We went to our favorite beach, Coronado Beach!

I love this beach the best because the sands are soft, the water is cool, and everything is so relaxing there.

We arrived at the beach early morning and it was cold and foggy, but so beautiful! We spent the rest of the day swimming, looking for shells, sunning, and having fun!

We covered Jake in sand and turned him into a merman!

Mom is so cute!! That water was cold!

After the beach we went back to the hotel to get ready for movie night. The resort that we stayed at has a Family Movie on the Lawn night. It was so much fun! The resort lays out blankets and pillows in the middle of a plush grassy area.  We watched Tangled.
