Harmon and Jack relaxing at the beach house.
Kate's ready for the nice weather with her flip flops on.
Everyone enjoying the view of the beach.
Harmon tried to keep up on work while he was gone. I don't know how you could concentrate on work with that view right in front of you. The Leany's home is so beautiful and relaxing.
Lacey, Jessica and Bailey had so much fun together.
Lacey and Jess.
Lacey and Bailey have really missed each other since Bailey moved last year.
Everyone went out to lunch at Ruby's Diner in Laguna for Jessica's birthday. We were lucky enough to be seated by ourselves on the roof (so was the rest of the restaurant).
Bailey, Lacey and Jessica.
We had a celebrity sighting while we were at the beach by the Montage. Can you tell who it is?
Jack and Kate.
Kate getting her feet wet.
I don't think they stayed dry very long.
Enjoying the beach...
Kids are always so fascinated with birds. Kate is no different.
We promised the kids we would take them to Disneyland. We decided that the middle of the week would be the best time to go. I guess we should have consulted the weather. The weather had been gorgeous the whole time we were there. However, Wednesday, it drizzled the WHOLE day (except for the first couple of hours we were at Disneyland). I also have to add that it was gorgeous the rest of the week as well. It was definitely a bummer. Once you've paid to get in there is no turning back. So here was our day at Disneyland. This is Harmon and Jack with their driver's license from Autopia.
Lacey and Halle waiting for Autopia. Halle was a little nervous and excited because she got to drive her own car.
Harmon and Jack.
Lacey already found something she would like.
The threesome.
Bailey, Lacey and Jess in front of Sleepy Beauty's Castle. It is so pretty at Christmas.
Sage and Halle. I don't know where Sage comes from.
Waiting for Honey I Shrunk the Audience.
Sweet shades. Kate was a little scared of the movie and didn't want to keep her glasses on.
Looking our best.
More glasses.
Kate's excited to go on Dumbo.
Jack loved controlling Dumbo.
By this point we were quite wet and so tired.
I exist every now and then.
So cute.
Me and my favorite boy.
Kate is at the edible stage. I love that cute little face.
Jack has had enough. We still had a pretty good time, in spite of the weather.
On Saturday, we took the kids to the Great Park in Irvine to ride the "hot air balloon." This is Kate as we waited for our turn.
The cousins waiting.
This is the balloon we rode up in.
Halle has done this before this past summer. She is a pro.
Harmon and Kate. It makes me nervous just looking at this picture.
Lacey is also a seasoned balloon rider.
Ashley and Chase.
I think I look a little pale. I'm glad I did it but I don't need to do it again any time soon!
The fam.
Saturday night we met up at Capo Beach to have a bonfire to celebrate Toby's birthday. Jack loves to roast anything and kept saying he wanted another hot dog just so he could roast one.
Steve, Sunny and Grace.
Bailey and Lacey. It was 80 degrees this day. Boy, were we in for a shock since we were leaving for Utah the next day. Some things just aren't fair.
Sunny and Harm.
Happy Birthday Toby.
Sage and Halle are best cousins. They love being together.
Such cute girls. They had the best time with each other this trip.
Gracie and Kate.
Jack with a marshmallow mustache.
Kate is the biggest baby freak and couldn't get enough of the baby.
The kids started dancing and chanting around the fire!
Next thing you know they are worshipping it... Time to go. We loved our California Christmas.
