Our Adventures at Lake Martinez

Bree getting up on her Wake board!!!!













I know it has been a while since I blogged and so I am going back a while to try and catch up on some things. We took a trip to Lake Martinez in April after Keith returned from Deployment. I was one of the lucky kids that got to go here when I was about Bree's age. I loved it so I thought is would be cool for me to be able to take My family there now. We enjoyed the week that we got to spend at the lake and river. Here are some of the pictures that I took while we were there.

Sorry there are no pictures of me I am always behind the camera and the ones Keith takes are not pictures that I would post for everyone to see. Well we had a lot of fun relaxing and enjoying each other as a family. We went at the perfect time because there was only one other cabin that had people in it so we had the lake to our selves most of the time. Bree got to get up on her Wake board and had a blast with it and she learned how to get up on the Knee board. She loves playing behind the boat and is a little hot dog now on everything. At night we enjoyed going down and feeding the Raccoons. They loved to eat dog food and dog biscuits. We also went for a hike and our dogs thought they were going to die. But they didn't they made it just fine and we through them in the lake when we got back to camp. I can't wait to go back again.

Natural History Museum

My Friend Milie had asked me if I wanted to take Bree and go to the Natural History Museum today. So we decided to go and I was a little disappointed in it. I thought here in San Diego were they have one of the best Zoo's that they would have a great Museum. Well I am here to tell you that I don't think that this is true. O.K. so I have been to some very famous Natural History Museums so I had high hopes to start out. I should have used Keith's theory. Go in expecting it to not be great and then you won't be disappointed. Well next time I am going to do this. So it started out that there is only one room on the first floor that you can even go into and look at things. So we went in there and it was just o.k. nothing exciting. So we go up to the next floor and it was supposed to be animals and water. Well there were animals but none of them looked realistic at all. They were all plastic very few of them had bones at all and then they didn't even catch the kids attention at all. Then we went into the water section and there were some things that the kids could play with so it caught there eye a little more. I think this section was the one that took us the longest to go through. All in all it only took us about 1 1/2 hours to go through the whole thing. Here are some pictures that I took while we were there. But if you are going to be in San Diego in the Future I would not suggest that you take the time to go in here.

O.K. here is one thing that I did like there. This is a sculpture from Africa and is called difference of Opinion.
