Wilson Family Reunion Coronado - Beach Days

The beach is where a good portion of our Vacation was spent. Minus one day where Boston all the sudden decided he was terrified of the Ocean the kids spent a good majority of their time in the water. 

 Well except Carter. He was very happy to sit in his chair and eat snacks. 

 Just living the hard life sitting in the shade with a beautiful view. 





 I love this pic of them. Such cute brothers. 




 Doing a little crab/hermit crab hunting. Xela and I were in charge of catching them this day. We were quick to make friends with a local little boy who was more than willing to do the work for us. He was darling!




 Boogie surfing was a huge hit with the smaller kids. It's a good thing we had so many boogie boards they were almost always all in use. 


 This was such a cute moment. Carter always loves being in the ocean, but this time he only wanted to be with grandma. They spent a good thirty minutes out there and he had a huge smile glued to his face the whole time. 

 When Carter discovered the big shovels he didn't let them go. He was so happy to walk around dragging one of them with him all over the beach. 
 Boston tried really hard to give rides on the boogie board ha. 
 Cute little Ivie just parked herself right in the sand. 




 Love my little family so much!
 Attack of Allie is what the boys kept yelling. She just wanted in on the action. 





 The sand castle man in Coronado is amazing! If I am being honest I would LOVE to be able to learn how to do that. Pretty sure my kids would think I was super Mom!
The beach never gets old. I am so glad we were all able to be there and that Mom and Dad Wilson made it possible. It was such an incredible week!

Wilson Family Reunion Coronado - San Diego Temple

After church on Sunday we drove over to the San Diego Temple to look around and eat sack lunches. I love the temple and all that it promises. Because of the covenants I have made there I will be with my family forever even after this life. I couldn't stop thinking about that while we were there all together. I can't think of a greater blessing or anything that I want more than an Eternal Family. 






 Almost all the Grandkids. Carter's looks kill me in these pics. 


 I am so blessed!

That night Ed and Xela's family did our Family Home Evening we had quite a few music leaders. Ha
