Work Trip to San Diego

Glen had a work trip planned for Southern California the first week in October and he suggested that I come along. 

It was perfect because they kids had the days off of school so we drove them to Salt Lake to be taken care of by relatives and we flew out from there.  

It's always so calming to go to the beach.  It was the first place we hit up as soon as our plane landed! We were both happy to hear the waves crashing and feel the sun!

Of course one of our very favorite beaches is in Laguna so we made sure to have some time to stop there too. 

We have lots of memories here with the kids, it made us kind of sad (for a couple mins) that they weren't with us. 

We got a good laugh out of this family affair photo shoot that was going on.  It looked like a teenage "couple" be photographed by a father and mother team.  But the positions they had them getting in were rather inappropriate!  & extremely awkward!
Then we were glad our kids weren't there!

The company that Glen was working with treated us to a nice dinner one evening.  It was so fun to sit outside in October, in short and t-shirts, and enjoy each others company with no interruptions!

The sunset at the beach happens to be one of my very favorite things!

We had to take a picture of Rapunzel's castle for Maggie!

Also we spent one day canoeing the ocean, no pictures as I was scared to bring a camera along for that! We had a good time watching for pretty fish and sea lions. We both agreed we couldn't do it for too long because we were getting a little sea sick.  

We flew home on a really early morning flight after being away for 3 days and 3 nights.  We picked up the kids and drove home.  It was a very fast trip but relaxing and that's what we both needed!
