Pictures from 4th of July Vacation!!!

Okay, here are some pics from the vacation.....finally!!!
We had so much fun in San Diego! We went to the beach on the 4th, and Logan just LOVED the ocean!!! He had so much fun in the sand and the water, and with Daddy, Meaghen, and Grandpa Davis! (Notice, I didn't say Mommy,or Grandpa Davis....we were relaxing and enjoying watching everyone else play with Logan!!) We cooked dinner that night and were all too tired to go watch fireworks, so we just stayed in and made bazookies and watched TV. Oh yeah, me and Brian went kayaking at the beach and saw a TON of sharks, leaopard sharks and guitar nose! It was really cool, but I was a little freaked out about tipping over in the middle of the ocean and not being able to get back up on the kayak, so we went back after a little while! We played in the waves, and just had such a good time, and none of us got bad sunburns....for the first time!!!!!
So here's the pics from the beach!!

Meaghen and Logan at the beach

On Saturday we went to the Del Mar fair and had a blast there! We got super lucky and some lady gave us two free tickets to get in, and we just had such a good time. Logan got to ride a real pony all by himself, and he loved it! Then he went to the petting zoo and had a blast feeding the animals and petting them all! Grandpa Davis even had a good time feeding the animals.....how cute huh! :)Brian and Logan shared a giant barbeque turkey leg...and it was seriously disgusting to watch them eat it. Mostly Brian, because he refused to wipe his face until he was done eating. We all had such a good time there too! And here's the pics!!
Logan and Grandpa Davis:

Grandpa so sweetly feeding the animals! :) (He even had to pay for the food!!!:))

That's pretty much it! We had such a good time in San Diego, and are sooo thankful for the time that we had as a family. We had a BLAST!!!!

Independence Day Vacation!!!

Okay, so I have been horrible about blogging lately! It seems like this summer has been so busy, and going by so fast! A few weeks ago Grandma and Grandpa Davis got swim lessons for Logan! He started of a little weary in the water....okay, he full on screamed the first 3 days and was mad at me the whole time. I would tell him we were going swimming that day and he started crying and flopping on the floor because he didn't want to go! But then on the 3 day I switched with another mom (she took Logan and I took her kid) and he did a lot better with her. We switched again the next day too, and since then, Logan just started improving drastically every day! It was awesome! Now he can almost find his way to the wall of the pool and pull himself out! And now he LOVES to go swimming! He also mastered his backfloat all by himself! I am so glad that we did the swim lessons! Thanks so much Grandma and Grandpa Davis!!!!
Okay, so on thursday we went to San Diego for the weekend! We left early in the morning, only to take about 8 long hours to get there!!!! We had a few bumps on the way.....the first one: we got to Gila Bend and the car starts making this horrible flapping/clicking noise. So we stop and look at what's going on. We don't find anything and get back on the road. Then the sound gets worse! We stop again and Brian pulls out this giant rubber thing that's supposed to be there, and thinks that should solve the problem. We get back on the road again, and the sound yet again, gets worse! Then we stop again, but this time as Brian steps out of the car to see what's going on, his foot sinks in the dirt and he sees that his tires are completely burried in the dirt up to the rims! Oh yes, and did I mention that it's about 110 degrees outside??? And we're in the middle of no where!!! Needless to say, I'm getting a little nervous and even more nervous when Brian gets back in the car, and tries to drive out and we get even more stuck! Then Brian tells me to get in the car and steer while he pushes! Okay, I was pretty much silently freaking out at this point! Worst case scenario is going through my head, and I'm thinking we're all going to die from heat exhaustion by the time we get rescued! So Brian starts to push, and nothing happens. Then he has this brilliant idea to put some towels under the front tires. Then he pushed again, I floored it, and we thankfully got unstuck... in a matter of only maybe 15 or 20 minutes. Oh and in the meantime of being stuck in the dirt, Brian figured out what was making the noise on the car! It was the flap under the front tire. It was ripped a little bit and so it was flapping against the tire. Luckily, nothing that can't be fixed with duct tape! So we got back on the road, and I'm telling Brian how smart he is for thinking to use the towels and how impressed I was that he got us out! Then he tells me he's been stuck a few times...... of course!!! :) Anyway, with another stop at Walmart for Duct tape, a stop for lunch and 3 border partol checkpoint stops, we finally arrived in San Diego at 3 in the afternoon!
(I wrote this post a week ago and my computer froze in the middle of it, so I'm just posting this like it is, the draft that was automatically saved, and I'll pick up where it left off another day...but in the meantime,here you go!)
