Our family vacation this year was AWESOME. Spencer took a whole week off of work and we did tons of great things. This was also Carter's first real trip. Our vacation started off in Aptos for our friends wedding and then we went on to Gilroy to the Gilroy Gardens and then to Monterey where we spent three nights.
Our first day at Gilroy Gardens. Nana and Papa came with us that day.
We all had a blast at Gilroy Gardens. We ended up getting season passes so we will hopefully be going a lot.
After Giroy we were off to Monterey. We stayed at the Portola hotel and it was beautiful! Spencer surprised me with a family suite. It was amazing and it was perfect for us. I loved it so much and I didn't want to leave.
Our hotel was a 2 min. walk to the Wharf. We went there for dinner two of the nights.
The hotel gave the kids these cute little seals when we checked in.
Relaxing with daddy.
Monterey Bay Aquarium!
Aubrey loved all the "rishies" We couldn't keep up with her. She wanted to see everything. It was a very fun day.
Cannery Row
For the last few weeks all we have heard Aubrey talk about is ducks. She loves feeding ducks so on our walk to the park we spotted ducks and since we didn't have bread with us we fed them her goldfish snacks. They loved it and so did she.
Dennis the Menace Park!
I love my boys!
Aubrey usually loves water fountains and this one was cool but kind of dirty (as you can see from her face).
After the park we had an afternoon at the pool. The pool was beautiful and it was heated so even better.
My Museum. It was a museum for toddlers where Aubrey got to play with lots of fun things.
We ended our awesome vacation feeding the ducks again. It was so much fun spending great quality time with our family. I can't wait until our next fun trip.
While we were on vacation Deuce was with our wonderful neighbors. It was a vacation for Deuce! He got to go to the dog park a couple times, went on a walk two times a day and had some time away from the kids.
