We took our first family trip alone for 5 days to Oceanside. We wanted a beach, beach view and pool. We were able to find exactly what we wanted. We had great weather all week long.

Breakfast the first morning there. The kids have retired to booster seats.

Corryn at breakfast. Raise your hand if you're enjoying yourself!

Brady at breakfast. I guess this is equivalent to to thumbs up.
