First day back to reality, my friends! We just got back from our San Diego family vacation on Friday and had the weekend to transition before getting back to the grind. We had an awesome time soaking in the ocean air, but there really is no place like home. Oh, how I missed my bed! Once you go memory foam, you’re never the same!

Here’s a little recap of our vacation in photos and words.

Well for starters, we survived! I wasn’t sure how it was going to go down as this was the first vacation that we brought our dogs with us. To my delight, they did awesome and we were SO happy we brought them. This was also our first AirBnB experience and boy did we hit the jackpot. The cottage we stayed at was steps from a secluded beach (which we had to ourselves just about every morning!). The dogs were a bit hesitant of the ocean waves at first, but within a few minutes they were ready to move there permanently!

And of course, I wasn’t going to pass up an opportunity to do some yoga on these beauties!

The rest of our trip was spent at the other local Ocean Beach beaches. Is there anything better than a little one discovering all that the beach has to offer?! Bella LOVED it!

The windblown hair. I can’t even deal with this cuteness!

Our cottage was walking distance from Sunset Cliffs which had the most incredible views. We took many evening walks and I even got to do yoga on the cliffside with the sound of the waves crashing below me. Such good stuff!

We also got to enjoy some time with old friends, new friends, and got our family pics taken (coming soon!) while we were there. We loved trading the AZ heat for the salty Cali air for a week. Safe to say, I think we will be back again next year!

Happy Monday!
