Wyatt's 2 year & Beckett's 3 1/2 year pictures

*sigh.  Yet another family photo shoot where Leon and I would have rather gone to the dentist and had all of our teeth pulled.  Beckett is actually getting much better, but he has also entered the stage where when you ask him to smile, he puts on a funny, forced smile.  Wyatt was in no mood to have his pictures taken...and true to 2-year-old form, his reply to any smile requests was a firm and emphatic, "NOOOO!!!!"  I've learned to just deal and, especially when it comes to pictures, you get what you get!

Downtown

It was a beautiful, sunny day, so we headed downtown to check out Seaport Village and the San Diego Harbor.

The Beach

I told Becky that she couldn't come to San Diego without going to the beach, so off to the beach we went!

Carlsbad Flower Fields

The Carlsbad Flower Fields were so colorful and beautiful.  They reminded me a lot of the tulip fields in Mt. Vernon, except the majority of the flowers here were ranunculus.  

Becky visits & the San Diego Zoo's Wild Animal Park

We were so happy to have Becky come visit us for a few days.  While she was here, we went to the San Diego Zoo's Wild Animal Park:
