Beach vacation with great friends!

This first week in July we headed over to Pacific Grove/Carmel! Our friends the Thomas' joined us and we had a great time! Cymblynne and I and our girls let early in the day while the boys finished work and went to the outlets in Gilroy! We shopped for 5 1/2 hours and our girls did great...we got some great deals too!



Above was dinner our first night there at a yummy italian place by our condo! Below was our culturing our kids...HAHA we saw this sign and heard music so we checked it out! Steve and Ken headed back but Cym, the kids and I went into "Dance Jam" I wish we could have snapped pictures without offending the people there. It was kind of a hippy woodstock-ish free dance. There were incents, dim lights, and alter of sort...needless to say we only stayed a little bit but it was the talk of the weekend!

These pastries were from this amazing bakery in Pacific Grove...The donut was the size of a paper plate!

We went to the beach after lunch with Cymblynne's Aunt, Uncle and Niece. We decided to go to Carmel beach because of the great sand! It was a bit cold but the kids had a ball!







On Sunday we all headed to the Aquarium! The kids had lots of fun but it was very crowded! After we headed to one of our favorite places to eat there..Bubba Gumps! After lunch we went to Dennis the Menace Park. It was lots of fun the kids played then talked us into doing a paddle boat. First we took the girls then Treysen came for a spin! After we drove along the coast. It was beatiful. We decided to stop and check out the great view, look at the tide pools and take some pictures. (Dont be surprised if one of them is on our Christmas card!!) Such a fun trip, we can't wait for our next adventure with the Thomas family!!
