We were able to get away to California last week for some sweet family time. I absolutely love a good road trip and time with my family, so it's basically a win win! We are so blessed to live only a 5 1/2 hour drive from San Diego and extended family members. Even though my parents don't live in town anymore, my brother is still there, as well as my in-laws, Josh's sister and her family, and our friends. It's always great to catch up, even though the time there is usually crazy busy and chaotic trying to squeeze seeing everyone in! On this particular trip, we tried to focus on time with just us which meant only staying in San Diego for one night. We got to spend some time with my brother at Mission Beach that evening. Eden loved making "sand angels" in the sand in her clothes (we went straight from AZ and didn't have a way to get her bathing suit out of the suitcase ahead of time) and Everly loved touching her feet in the sand, too. My little water babies, they have it in their blood ;) The next morning we got breakfast with Josh's family, and then headed up to the Pacific Coast Highway where we went through all of our old favorite stomping grounds like Dana Point, Huntington Beach and Laguna Beach. We have a secret little place that we like to park in Laguna and we found that, got the girls out of the car and spent some time at the water with the girls. The location is literally right next to the Montage Resort in Laguna and is absolutely breathtaking! Lots of great memories there back in our dating and early newlywed days! From there we drove to check into our hotel at the Hyatt Regency Orange County where we embarked on a few days at the happiest place on earth ;) More pics of that to come. Wanted to make sure I documented these beach pictures that will always hold a special place in my heart! P.S. In the last picture below, I am 24 weeks pregnant with our son! I can't believe it! It has gone so fast!
