California Trip

Once again we had the annual Edgel Family California Beach Trip!  I'm so grateful for wonderful in-laws that plan this trip each year.  This was our fourth year (Gavin's third) and like always it was a fun trip.  We were on Mission Beach near San Diego, and our beach house was just a short walk from both the ocean and the bay.  Although I love the sound of the beach and waves, we spend alot of time on the bay side where there weren't any waves to scare Gavin.  The first time I took him down to the beach, we were watching a big wave come in, and next thing I know Gavin starts booking it up the beach back to the bike path yelling, "Coming! Coming!"  Later Jared took him down to show him that the waves stop and won't keep coming after him.

Unfortunately Jared somehow got a bad scratch or something on his eye the day we drove down, so he was stick inside alot of the trip because of how sensitive he was to light.  When we got to San Diego we went straight to an urgent care clinic, and from there they sent us over to the hospital ER.  Jared is such an amazing sport about things thought, and just kept saying, "It it what it is," and he made the best of it.  Luckily his eye is doing better now, not completely back to normal, but pretty close.

Here are a bunch of pictures from this years trip!  Enjoy!

Birthday gift for Gavin from Grandma and Grandpa 

Gavin loved going on bike rides most mornings.  It helped kept the house quiet until people were up

By the end of the trip Gavin was actually really good with his squirt gun

Tyler and Breanne (my future sister-in-law) were able to make it up for a few days which was fun.  Here they are with all the nephews

Catching crab thingy's at the beach (not sure what they're really called)

On Sunday we walked outside the temple.  Apparently angle sounds like Rachel, because after telling Gavin there's an angel on top of the temple he thought it was Aunt Rachel up there!

After the temple and lunch we went to San Diego Old Town to the Mormon Battalion Museum
