So I Didn't Have wifi Yesterday...

Oh. MY.

We finally made it!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This place is amazing.
But.
Let me start at the beginning...
So. Yesterday.

DAY ONE

Friday. I had to get all packed which was kind of hard. Considering that when we moved in December, I did some cleaning out, and threw away all my shorts. It didn't occur to me that summer would be here pretty quick.

But I did it!

Haha, then after a lot of setbacks with the car, we got on the road. 
(Oh, and because I bought a ton of these, I practically lived on them for the whole ride. Jolly Rancher chews.)


 I think I could die a happy person if I never saw another Jolly Rancher chew in my life.

So we drove all the way to Vegas. It was pretty uneventful. Then we got to our Hotel and slept...

DAY TWO

Waking up in Vegas... you know what? I don't really care for Vegas. If you are going there for vacation, I'm sorry. Every time I go, I hate it even more. No, it's not because all you can smell is smoke, and all you can see are slutty ads. Like neither of those things bug me. It's just that it's hot, and in the middle of nowhere.
But whatever.

So we went to a buffet for breakfast. To be honest, Vegas is the only time I ever make an exception for a buffet. But even then, I regret it right after... when will I ever learn? 
So.
We drove.


and drove.


and drove some more.

I fell asleep again, and when I woke up, we were in Barstow CA. I couldn't fall back to sleep. I was so excited to see the ocean. You guys probably don't even understand my love for the ocean. It's not just the romanticism of it all. I mean it's that, but it's more. It's that overwhelming feeling you get when it's right in front of you, and you realize how small you really are. I think that's why I love flying so much too. 

Of course I was the first to see it. And of course I was freaking out. Ugh I'm such a child. But I don't care. 


Finding the house was a little tricky. Oceanside is packed with spring-breakers... aaand off duty Naval officers. Uhhhhhhhh..... haha YES.

You guys. The house is amazing. I had a video tour, but blogger won't load it. So I'll either have pictures or a video tomorrow.



Tomorrow is going to be so nice. Beach day. There are these cute bikes in the garage and some boogie boards. Plus, the whole town is made up of cute little shops and there's this cute pier. Cute cute cute. I can't even wait! 

Goodnight

Guys. It's Finally Here... Almost.

Tomorrow we leave. I can't even begin to tell you how excited I am for this vacation. I'm going to try and blog every day. Becaaaause. You know when you go on vacation, and you swear you'll remember every minute of every day? Then you get home and everyone asks about it, and you can't even keep the days straight, or remember which day you did what?

Yeah, that's not happening to this girl. Blogging. Every night.

So today is Thursday, tomorrow is Friday. I stayed home today to get a mountain of laundry done so I will have clothes to wear on vacation. And do cleaning around the house. Mom worked an all-nighter last night, so I'm watching the kiddies while she's sleeping. Also, I work tonight. That will be pretty awesome. 

Then tomorrow, the plan is to be out of here by 2 in the afternoon. We are roadtripping all the way there. Three adults (including muah), and five kiddies in one car... yeah, it's a great idea. Ha, it will actually be fun.. I hope...

So, someone should probably remind me not to forget my laptop. Please and Thankyou. Oh and my camera. I def can't forget either of those. If I do, I might just die. 

Anyways. So then after we leave, the plan is sleeping in Vegas, then onward to Cali the next day! Oceanside to be specific. I can't wait for this beach house. And I can't wait for Disneyland. I probably sound like such a kid, but Disneyland is one of my favorite places.  And I haven't been in sooo long. The past couple of times I've been to Cali, it was for wine country, or the beach, or just for exploring. 

Ohhhhh and today, I loaded up my phone with a ton of new music. I will have no shortage of the stuff. Like just listen to a few of my finds...


Welp, I will have plenty of pictures and stories for you tomorrow. Oh! and videos! Dad wants me to play with the new GoPro, so, I'll have videos for you too!
