san diego

after spending a week in florida, we kind of got the vacation bug. we left last sunday for san diego, and just got home today. we took the kids to legoland. i think that ryan and emily have had their share of amusement parks for a while. legoland was fun, but definitely geared towards ryan's age (3-4) to maybe 9 or 10 yr olds. there were not many rides em could go on. they do have a few fun play land areas and water play areas, but it was freezing (by our standards anyway... it probably only got to 60 that day) so we didn't even consider playing in the water and getting wet. it was really nice because there were no lines at all. we pretty much just walked right on all the rides. i would have not have had a good impression of legoland if we would have had to wait in lines. it's fun, but i think i prefer disney! we did take a ton a pics but our desktop computer crashed, and this ancient laptop i am using (thanks dad- i'm serious, it may be old but at least it keeps me connected) will not let me upload any pictures. as soon as we get the computer up and running i will post them. i just have to thank my wonderful husband right now for yesterday! he let me go shopping all day pretty much! he stayed in the car with the kids while i went to the container store, and shopped at fashion valley mall (probably my favorite mall ever). even after hours in the car with the kids, we got to go to utc mall. and, he didn't even say one thing about all the stuff i bought. it was an awesome day! next week i am taking the kids to slc for a few days. after that we probably won't go anywhere for a while. but i guess you never know, we might change our minds.
