Summer Adventures

In July, my mom, dad, sister, niece, my four kids and I took a trip to Ventura Beach. Lots of kids make for a crazy time, but it was fun and we managed to squeeze a lot in.
The first thing the kids wanted to do was swim.

At the Harbor
The highlight of the trip was the Santa Barbara Zoo. Everyone had a great time except for Jackson who is kind of a pain and hitting his stride as a terrible two (almost.)

We got pretty close- only a glass wall separating us.

He did like the train ride
Jacey and JoJo
Feeding the giraffe

Jacey's souvenir
Jackson liked the ant hill. Fun to slide down.

Jackson is scared of the ocean. Wha???? I had to hold him mostly the whole time.
Jaden worked on digging a hold--hit water.
Then he buried himself in it.
Jacey is the only one that got in. It was cold--cold water and cold outside.




This kid is crazy but we still love hiTime to go home! Fun times! We doing it again soon.
