Visiting with the cousins at Aimee's & Donald's house

The ocean behind us and a pool in front. How nice is that?

We loved swimming!

Sometimes vacationing is EXHAUSTING!!!

At Dana Point we stopped for some yummy fish tacos and Seafood.

We didn't see any whales, but did see quite a few dolphins.

"Danger, Please don't be so closed to the fountain, Thanks"

Going on a bike ride

Me taking pictures while riding

Wow, that's a lot of seagulls, and I didn't get a picture when the big group flew over us.

One of the more wealthy locals.

Megan and Mr. Seagull. This was a nice picture and the bird flew away right after I snapped this shot.

Taking a rest from riding bikes to eat some fish tacos. We searched out and found fish tacos almost every day.

Today's fish taco.

...continuing the bike ride. Not a bad picture taken without looking while riding my bike.

Whew.... Finally arriving back home. What a fun bike ride.

Another pool where we stayed.

The sun setting over the ocean behind us.

Our Place.

Going on a balloon ride in Orange County. Once the balloon took off a few people hit the floor.
That's a huge basket and it holds a lot of people.

That's the balloon ride behind us.

Ellen at the beach

This was a great beach and it had a fun inlet.

100% True

Jacob braving the waves

Megan at Huntington Beach. So many beaches, so little time..... and now we have to return home.

Eating breakfast at our hotel in Nevada.

You lose an hour when you hit Utah, so that means we get to eat breakfast again!
We stopped at our favorite McDonalds in St. George and sat on the saddle chairs. I sat on those chairs
when I was little. That McDonalds is getting completely renovated now. I hope they keep the saddles!

I know which one is cuter!
