Vacation Part Four-Legoland

On the last day of our San Diego vacation we headed to Legoland. It is crazy the detail they put into all their creations. Em seemed to enjoy it but I don't think as much as Sea World. We tried again to let her go on rides but she still wanted nothing to do with them. They had a great splash park for kids and she loved that. I wish I would have brought her swimsuit so she could play in it more than she did. She would have been happy to stay and play in the water all day. By 2 in the afternoon we had pretty much walked the whole park except for the miniland. Caleb made sure to save that for last. I thought it would be neat to see all the little cities they built but little did I know that it would take 3 hours to look at. It has to be a guy thing to spend so much time looking at all the details of the buildings. Don't get me wrong, it was very impressive but I guess I just skip over the details more than the boys do. It was a great trip and fun to visit Legoland for the first time. At the end of the day we headed out to eat and then a long drive home.
The last few days of our vacation were spent hanging out at home and just enjoying family. We left Sunday night and Em slept for all of it except the last hour. She is such a great traveler.
We are back at home now and getting back into the routine of things. We have had a few showings of our house and are having another open house this weekend. It is really hard to remain positive that the house will sell but if that is what the Lord wants then it will. We are praying daily that God will continue to make it clear the path he wants for us and to remember that it is in his timing not ours.
