Color Run San Diego 2012

Before Dominick was even born our friends asked if he wanted to run in the Color Run in San Diego. He jumped at the idea, because it was just a fun run and it was in San Diego meaning we could stay for a night and get to enjoy Southern California for a day or two.

This past weekend November 3rd was the actual race and it turned out to be a really nice day and a fun race for him. We got up quite early, packed the bags, packed the car and out the door we went. We got there right on time as we ended up running into a bunch of traffic on the 405 (we were actually afraid we may not even make it). I think we pulled into the parking lot around 1:00 and the race started at 1:30. Ryan changed, I got the baby fed, diaper changed and into the stroller and we were there right before it started. Our friends were already there waiting for us and they too didn't think we'd make it.

Ryan said there were SO many people that he spent a lot of the run dodging people. I think he enjoyed it overall.

After the run we went to the hotel and everyone got cleaned up. For dinner we went to an amazing Japanese Steakhouse and stuffed ourselves to the max. On Sunday we got up and went to Stone Brewery where we all enjoyed a tour and the guys were able to get some samples and pick some beer up to bring home. After the brewery, we made the 3-3.5 hour trip back home.

It was a great weekend to spend as a family and with friends.
