Vacation Day 2

Day 2= not the best of days. So most of you know going on "vacation" with small children isn't always a "vacation." We decided to drive to the beach down the road because it was a wider beach and less crowded. After hauling all our beach equipment out, I realized I forgot Brayden' formula. So then we had to come back early to feed Brayden and went ahead and put Cami down for her nap. After nap we got ready and decided to try the beach that we could walk to. {side note: I knew I was out of shape, but didn't know how bad until we had to walk up the millions of stairs carrying a 12 pd little boy and the carseat... woah... definitely will be using those stairs as my work out this week!} Got down and Devin decided to try surfing again for the first time in about 5 years. He had fun trying and it was fun watching him do something he use to love to do when he lived here. A side of Devin I have never really got to see. After coming back up we realized we had NO POWER! Are you kidding me?! So then we had to take 2 VERY cranky kids to try and find a store so we could buy flashlights or what not. Well come to find out ALL of Southern California was without power because a whole power plant blew so nothing was opened. We adventured back home and grilled so we could have dinner. Also, luckily we found some tea candles and then our neighbor was kind enough to bring over some candles as well because she knew we had 2 little kids and didn't want us to be in the dark. How nice of her!Luckily power did come back on in the middle of the night. All that to say it was an interesting day and hoping today is better! We are also expecting Devin's parents tonight or first thing in the AM and also Devin's sister tomorrow mid morning. Should be fun!
