The OC

We have been home for about a month now, but I have been so busy that I just finally got the time to take a look at the nearly 1000 photos that Blake and I took on our trip..I felt like I hardly took any, far too busy..but nonetheless, there were quite a few. Goal for next vacation would be to take less, it is a lot of work to sort through all those photos!

The trip was lovely, we had sun, good food, lots of fun activities, and family time! Those who have instagram saw some of the activities not documented with our camera's here..biking, games and trip to balboa island. 

We send a big thank you to Mimi and Papa for making this trip happen their generosity. Our kids loved the beach, and biking and playtime..and had their first trip to disneyland and of course LOVED it!
