Mini Trip to California

Last weekend, Rebecca and I hopped on an airplane and headed to California.

We decided that since David and Adam went in September to see Jared, Tori and Boston, that we should go in October.  :-)

We also got to see Grandma Ginia (and have a delicious dinner at Outback) and we saw Jeff for a few minutes.  (Hopefully we'll get to visit with Shawna next time).

We went to the Pumpkin Patch and even went through the Corn Maze.  It was just getting dark so that made it even more fun to go through the maze.  It was fun to visit the same Pumpkin Patch we used to take Jared and the other kids to when they were little.

On Saturday, after we stopped at Sputnik's Doughnuts for the best doughnuts in the world, we headed over to Santa Cruz.  It was a gorgeous day there.

Of course, we had to go to the Boardwalk so Rebecca and I could ride the Fireball and then Jared and Boston rode a few rides.

After an hour or two at the Boardwalk, we headed north (along with some Togo's sandwiches) to a little-known place that Jared discovered.  It's called Shark Fin Cove, named for the big rock that looks like a Shark Fin.

Boston loved the sand! 

We all had a great time watching the huge waves crash into the rocks.  It was definitely the perfect day.

 

 We headed back home on Sunday morning.  It was a short visit but tons of fun!!
