CALI TRIP 2010!!!!

We all just got back from our annual trip to California. Again, it was SO much fun. I look forward to this trip all year and I'm already counting down til next year. It was very cloudy and overcast this year, but to me it was great! I love cloudy, gloomy weather. It was gorgeous and perfect temperatures. Couldn't be better.

The first day of the trip I did get sick and was in bed for the day and missed the beach, but I sucked it up for the rest of the week. There was no way I was missing out.

No cousins our Aunts and Uncles came this year for the first time, but I think we had a pretty fun relaxing trip. We missed you guys!!! We did all of our usual activities (minus my mom's famous pirate treasure hunt... just wait til next year), and had a great time.


*Coby sitting under the umbrella after he got burnt the first day. He wasn't getting any more sun he said. ---- Peyton got turned into a mermaid*

*I miss this toothy grin. She is so much fun (and she knows it too)*









*TRADITION!!! I should post the picture of Heather and Tiffany eating a Balboa bar when they were like 5 and 6. We made many stops to get the best Balboa bars this week! Gotta love them!*






*Another FAV! Gina's pizza! We got pizza one night and ate it on the grass on a hill over-looking the beach. It is so good. Put that on your "to-do" list if you are going near Newport or Laguna*


*Perry doesn't really like to go by men. It's pretty funny. But she did decide that my dad was hilarious on the LAST day of the week.*



*My parent's fav! I am allergic to fish so I can't eat here, but my parent's and brother-in-law LOVE IT! So need a good fish joint? The crab-cooker is great!*





*I stayed a couple extra days for photo shoots and one day my mom and I drove to the Orange Antique square. It is a neighborhood with tons and tons of antique stores. It was pretty fun to walk around and see all the great things there were. I've never been there before so it was neat to try something new.*









*I didn't get any pictures of Coby and me. I think my sister took one on the beach, but other than that, nothing. So we took this in the back seat on the way to take Coby to the airport. Something is better than nothing right?*


*I'm already missing this place. The cool weather, breeze, the smells, the beach, and all the memories that we've had over all the years. Until next year... I can't wait!!!
