the FOURTH and the weekend...

For the fourth of July weekend our friends Morgan and Britton came out to visit from Logan. We love them! It was so much fun and we were sad to see them leave.

On the fourth we went to the beach alll day long. Newport Beach was packed and crazy with people, but we managed to find a parking spot miles away and Tyler long boarded back forth to it for us. He sure does come in handy! We had a big group with us and it was perfect weather for some beach volleyball and playing in the waves.



Tyler and Britton also rented boogie boards and were surfing on them all day. Some reason it cut tylers chest up pretty bad and he still has little scars! I was glad not to be a part of it since my last boogie boarding experience (on our honeymoon) I almost died! If our kids get any sports/coordination talents at all it will definitely be from him.

That evening we went to the fireworks show in Downtown Disneyland. The fireworks were good but they shut them off early because of the wind. It was still fun to be able to walk around downtown disneyland though and then we went to eat at my favorite restaurant, The Cheesecake Factory. I had alot and fun and we were completely worn out by the end of the night. I love the fourth!

Sounds like alot of fun. Way to take advantage of what SOCAL has to offer. Sorry to hear about the boogie board and Tyler. We have never had that problem. Sorry to hear about your near death experience.

Love,
Aunt Kathy

Wow you look so tan! We have been stuck in this stupid hotel for two weeks and the pool is closed so I have got no sun lately. Looks like you had a fun 4th, you two are so dang cute!

Moore fun in Colorado! said...

I'm so glad you got to have a fun time with your good friends. That was so great that they could come down to see you! Looks like you showed them a really good time. Tyler is just plain accident prone--he needs to be in a little room with padded walls to keep from getting hurt. Just kidding! I'm glad he goes for the gusto in life even if it comes with a few scars!!

Love you two lots!

Well I hope it makes you feel better that I am often jealous of YOU for living in my beautiful California! As gorgeous as Hawaii may be, there are just some things it will never have. 4th of July in HB cannot be beat. I miss it!

So enjoy it all for me!
