So Cal

Me and the kids headed down to So Cal {drive down not so divine, but oh well} for a bit. Spence was leaving town, and I thought "Why would I want to stay home alone?" Hello? So off we went to spend some time with family.

While we were there we were able to go to "Nana's beach" and spend some time with the Brinton side, whom we love to the death. A good time is always had with them; especially since I could, also, consume some Carne Asada soft tacos from Pedro's Taco Shack. Seriously. That is goodness in a white soft corn tortilla. {It is located in San Clemente}

After a little time at the beach we headed inland to my families place... and while there we were able to have a "fake" birthday dinner/day for Rachael. Her birthday was three days later, and we were headed home the next day - so a party was of course needed.

The birthday {week} couple.

Rachael, from her good side. {She rented a camera for her birthday road trip adventure. There should be some good footage coming our way from those three days.}

Then this is my sister Aarean... whom is as cute as a button pregnant. This is her first. And is Due the first week of November. Does she look like it? No. Not at all. But is growing. It is a girl and we are so excited for her. Josh is attached to her belly... yes that is her husband. And he might just eat her stomach. He can get his mouth HUGE. It is fantastic.

This picture - below - is all morphed... but it is what it is... so be it.

This is R... trying to figure out why we left her inside!

{she is telling me she went to the bathroom btw}
