We’re back! It’s been a fun-filled past few days over at the Yoo household. We took our mini-trip to Mission Beach in San Diego and the boys got to ride a train for the first time. Everything went smoothly, there were no major hiccups, which is always good. The boys had a blast at the beach, they loved getting wet in the waves. In lieu of Top 10 Moments of the Week, here’s a set of pictures from our vacation. Have a great weekend, everyone!
Logan threw a major tantrum before we got on the train but loved it once we were on. Here he is looking out the window. Of course, this rapt fascination only lasted about an hour.
Parker gave me this original pose for his train ride picture.
After the train ride, our first stop was the aircraft carrier, the USS Midway. Near the parking lot, a man stood with two parrots by some trees. Of course, the boys gravitated toward the birds so we got a few shots of them with the boys.
This was my second time aboard the USS Midway and the boys’ first. It’s so huge!
Sammy was excited to show the boys all of the different exhibits. Did you know that the Midway was commissioned a week after the end of World War II and that it was the largest ship in the world until 1955? It was also the first U.S. aircraft carrier too big to transit the Panama Canal.
Of course, the best part is seeing all of the aircraft aboard the ship. The boys loved seeing all the different planes.
After all that walking, the boys got tired so Sammy carried them to the car. He gets in quite the workout.
That late afternoon, we headed to the beach. (We stayed in an ocean front condo so it was only a short walk). Here’s my mother-in-law smiling for the camera.
I was able to sneak in this picture of a surfer walking through the water.
Usually, when we go to the beach the boys just play with their trucks in the sand. This time, they actually wanted to touch the water. Parker was having a blast.
That’s grandma tightly holding onto Parker’s hand.
That evening, the sunset was just breathtaking. This shot was taken from our balcony. The sky was just this beautiful cotton candy color.
The next day, we headed to Balboa Park to go to the railroad museum and the science center. Right when we got to the park, I took this picture of Parker and our nanny, Cindy, together.
One of the workers at the railroad museum picked the boys up to look at one of the running trains. The boys never get tired of this place.
That evening, we headed out to Belmont Park (San Diego’s beachfront amusement park) to check out the arcade games and rides. Before we left, Sammy snuck in this kiss on Logan’s cheek.
At the amusement park, we mostly stayed in the arcade playing games like skeet ball. The boys could barely throw the ball far enough but they still had a great time.
There’s a HUGE rock climbing wall and a zip line through Belmont Park. That’s Parker looking super small next to the wall.
This was one of the rides at the park. They were all a little too crazy for the boys so we headed back after the arcade.
