The average motel room in San Diego was about $60 a night. But camping was $20. So that was a no brainer. We borrowed a tent from my dad since ours we would of been a little cramp. And headed to California's nature. From Friday to Monday morning this was our home. 
I said it before and I'll say it again but I think Hailey has gone country. She absolutely loved it!!
When we packed our clothes we figured that it would be warm all day and all night. WRONG!! In San Diego the year round temp is 76 degrees. Nice I know....but at night it hits around 45 degrees. Yikes! We froze that first night.
So first thing in the morning after our frost bite wore off we went shopping at a local thrift shop. We all got hoodies, pants, long sleeve shirts, hats, and socks. We went all out. 
That night we were all nice and cozy. And we all got much better sleep.

After the first set was done and showed to be all burnt I got the hang of it and the next was somewhat better. 
Yes our plates say "Are we there yet?" I thought that was awesome when we brought them.

Every day we got dress, ate and then left to go to the city. But we chilled and relaxed and had some camping fun.
See all the wood Mike "borrowed" from the other camp sites when everyone left Sunday afternoon. We got stocked up.Just a few random pictures....
See this bird....a whole bunch of them would tear apart our camp site when we would leave 
So Mason thought would be fair to catch one. So Mike and him made a box trap with a string and waited.....
Mason got tired of waiting so he bagged that idea after about 30 minutes. He tried! Clever little bird.
Hailey took every opportunity to play with this water thing. When we were leaving she wanted to take picture with her water. (she said this-not me)
Here's Mike and I. Yes that's his tourist hat that he got back on our honeymoon. But Mike was really good about teaching me a few things during our camping trip. Like how to make a fire. Yeah I know how now!!!! But he did something really sweet and made our mark in California.

He carved this heart with our initials in the picnic table our last night along side some other previous visitors. I guess you can say we left our heart in San Diego.
