Huntington Beach Getaway

October 27th - 30th


The week before Halloween Mark left for Huntington Beach on a business trip...so I followed him there for a really warm, sunny, kid free weekend.  Grandma came to be with the kids and I spent several days being by myself and being with my Mark.  It was so needed and so nice.  I only took a few pictures the last day because most of the time I was riding one of these cute blue bikes and relaxing so much that I forgot I had even brought my camera.  We ate at amazing places and I did tons of window shopping.  I hung out by the pool and read and when I felt adventurous I walked across the street to the sandy beach. 



I did get to see my friend Jordan and her sweet girls while I was there but again...no pictures.  maybe she has a few she can send me???  We had lunch and walked the pier and took some time just to do some much needed catching up.  Thanks Jordan for making the drive so we could hang out!
We found a cute place that had a Ferris Wheel and a carnival type feel to it.

On one of our walks we found this anchored boat that had these bad boys on it.  makes you wonder what happens on these boats when you're away.


Then mark found a place that fries things so he got himself a corn dog and a fried Twinky.


A big thank you to Grandma for coming and staying with our buttons!  They had a better time then we did...and they still talk about how much fun they had. Plus we needed this.  Nothing like leaving the drippy gray weather here and going somewhere sunny and perfect!  I'm ready to go back!

Jenni I love the pictures of the trees with the sunset. I just recently took a picture where the trees were dark like that (not as cool of a sky or angle) but now i can't remember how i did it :)
