We decided to take our teens to San Diego Wild Animal Park this trip since we hadn't been there before. We were pleasantly surprised they were entertained the whole day and we all had lots of fun without the amusement park rides.
The other fun thing about being in California was meeting Hillary and Patrick for dinner each night in Irvine where they live and work. Hailey always kept Patrick laughing and we found a few after-dinner events to participate in with them as well...
Indoor go-kart racing...
Stocking up the newlyweds' pantry at Costco and Trader Joe's...
Arcade games and batting cages at Boomers...
Mostly, we tried to enjoy the sun and beaches in So. Cal.
I had to post this picture because it's hilarious--we're at Newport Beach and John is laying out in his suit, my dad has his jacket on, and my mom is fully buried under 3 beach towels trying to stay warm. It was in the high 60s that day and a little chilly for the Seniors... :D
Until next year when we'll just have one teen left at home! YIKES!!!

How lucky are you.....to have Hillary living in sunny California?!!!! Now more than EVER, a reason to visit!
I agree with Shauna. A perfect excuse to get away to warm, sunny California! I am loving the pic of John and your parents on the beach. Too funny! It looks like a great trip.
