Lake

Today we went to Lake Mission Viejo with my sisters in-law and all of Gavin's cousins. We had a great time. The water was warm and good for swimming.

Gavin enjoyed playing in the shallows and digging holes and filling them with water.

First Date

So today marks the tenth anniversary of me and David's first date. Ten years ago on this day we went to see Armageddon at a movie theater which has since been turned into a Bally's Total Fitness:( My, my, how time changes things. It has not, however, changed the way I feel about him. He is still my everything, always and forever. So tonight we went to dinner at the Olive Garden (one of my favorite places... yum!) and then we went for a walk on the beach (the same beach where we had our first kiss... I'm lame, I know). It was really nice to have a few hours of alone time and celebrate us. Here's to ten more years!

The Good Life

So our wonderful friend invited us up to the Newport Beach house for a few days of relaxing. The kids all played so well together, which gave us some time to just sit, eat and chat. It was fabulous to do absolutely nothing for two days. Thanks Charise for a great time!

Lunch Bunch

A bunch of us moms found some 'buy 1, get 1 free' coupons for Souplantation and decided we should all meet up for lunch. (You just can't pass up a good deal like that) The restaurant was really accommodating. Especially since we were a party of 21(I think) and over half of that was kids under the age of 5. The food was great for the kids and we all had a great time. It is so nice to have a big group of friends to do things like this with.

Viva Las Vegas!

Gavin and I made the desert journey to Vegas with David's family this past weekend. His little brother is going on a mission so we all caravaned up for one last hoorah before he entered the MTC. David had to work so he couldn't come. I was a little hesitant about making the trip alone but we actually had a really great time.

Beach Fun!

We had a great opportunity to go to Newport Beach yesterday and use one of our friends beach houses. A bunch of us headed up there for some fun in the sun. We had a great time relaxing while the kids ran around and played. We were the only people on the beach so it was nice not having to worry about the kids getting lost in the crowds. The day went pretty well, with no major drama to speak of. At dinner time some of the husbands came up to meet us. We all walked out on the pier to Ruby's to eat. It was a wonderful day spent with great friends.
