California Vacation

We were luck enough to get to take a vacation for spring break! We thought it would be great to have some quality time with the kids before things get a little more hectic. We have always loved coming to California and this trip was no different. The best part is staying at Ryan’s uncle Doug’s and his friend Mark’s house. They are so much fun and spoil us like CRAZY! We love every minute!

Here are some of the great things we did with them …

We began and ended almost every day in this beautiful, warm pool.

Doug made us a fancy drink every night in the pool. Isn’t it beautiful?! It tasted amazing too! I’ve got to get all of his recipes!

 

This one was yummy too! Lemon cucumber … delicious!

I’ve never seen Dylan so excited about artichoke dip. Everything’s better when Doug makes it!

Have you ever eaten a strawberry Belgian waffle in a warm swimming pool? I’m sure you’re starting to see why I think we were sooo spoiled!

 

Yummy!

Saturday we went on what they call, “The L.A. Food Tour” That’s a post in itself. You can read about it HERE

On Easter Sunday Mark and Doug got a bucket of chicken from Knotts Berry Farm and we went to our favorite beach, Crystal Cove, for lunch. This is also Mark’s mom’s favorite beach which made it a very special place for lunch.

We topped it off with an awesome shake from Ruby’s. What a fun day!
