The Surf Motel

Our third time here, we had a private suite. The view from the balcony was unbeatable! Derek wanted to eat fish and chips from Harbor Fish Cafe for every meal!

Mom's Favorite Spot is Still the Ocean

Ball on the Beach, Carlsbad 2014

We had to buy a wiffle ball and bat so Derek could practice for his upcoming tournament!

Back to the Beach, May 2014

Derek's first vacation as a baby was a trip to the beach and we try to make it back every year. This was our third trip to Carlsbad State Beach!

Waterfall Hike

Derek made the 2 mile hike in the white tanks regional park. This is the first time we all had went even though it is literally right in our backyard. Arizona is beautiful in the Spring!!

Go Wildcats-Elite 8

Derek really enjoyed painting a banner and watching the wildcats in the tournament. They did an amazing job even though they got beat by UConn in the elite 8.

Happy St. Patrick's Day

Bonzo and Derek are all smiles even though they are too young to drink! Derek has his shamrock Cubs hat on and Bonzo his spring break t-shirt!
