8 Years in Cali

Last Tuesday was mine and Trent's 8th anniversary!  He had a conference in Orange County Tuesday - Thursday so I flew out on Thursday to meet up with him and to celebrate our anniversary!

 My kind of flight!
I actually read 2 books on our trip.  I can't remember the last time I was able to do that!

 The view out our window!  We stayed in Huntington Beach.

 Dinner at our hotel on Thursday night.

 Waiting outside of the spa on Friday morning for our couples massage.

 Enjoying some time in the relaxation room!  Tea, snacks, and quiet - amazing!

 We then rode our bikes on the beach to Newport Beach and back.  We worked up an appetite!  Our lunch was at Sandy's, a great spot right on the beach!

 We walked out on the pier - those black dots are surfers!

 My cutie on the Huntington Beach Pier.

 We relaxed at the pool that afternoon.


 We made the short drive to Laguna that evening, watched the sunset on a rooftop bar on the beach, and then had dinner at Sapphire.  

At our favorite spot in the lobby bar - we ended up there all 3 nights!

 Friday started off cool and cloudy so after we had a yummy breakfast we found a cozy spot by the fireplace to read for awhile!

 We ventured down to the beach about lunch time.


 It was still a little chilly! 

 The sun finally came out, and we ended the afternoon at the pool.

 We had dinner at Javier's in Laguna that evening.  It was an amazing!

 Trent tried a jalapeno margarita - notice his sleeves are rolled up, his forehead is shiny and sweaty, and he kept saying his lips were on fire!

 In our hotel lobby that night.

And back to our favorite spot!

We were off to the airport on Sunday morning to fly home.  It was a wonderful trip with lots of uninterrupted quality time, but we were so ready to see our boys!

The boys stayed with Mimi and Grampy in Marble Falls while we were gone.

 They picked peaches, petted donkeys and goats, and went for a hayride at Sweet Berry Farm on Friday morning.


 G got a chocolate milkshake every night before bed!  This was Friday night saying he was on his 2nd milkshake!

 Playing in the sandbox!

 And having fun at their SS party on Saturday evening.

 G ate 2 cups of homemade peach ice cream and then went home and had a chocolate milkshake!  Spoiled much?!

Sweet boys loved playing with Ruby!

  1. I'm so glad you and Trent were able to have some time to relax. The beach pictures were great. I think the boys had a great time with Barb and Darrell.
