Whirlwind So Cal Weekend

WOW!  We just got home from a short trip to So Cal in honor of THIS gorgeous Mommy-to-be:



It was full of:

Caffeine



The Ocean {Huntington Beach, to be exact}




Oohing & Aahing over baby-to-be cuteness



Clobbering our dinner


Oh, and did I mention my not-so-secret lover, the Ocean??


Now it is back to reality...laundry, grocery shopping & work.

But all I need to do is look at pictures of the ocean and my spirits lift!

***What place in nature brings you peace?***

  1. I just had crab legs tonight and they were spectacular. I really need to add them to my meal rotation more often!

    My wknd involved lots of coffee but not enough beach.....since I'm in CO. I love the mountains more than anything but grew up 10 mins from the beach and miss it every now and then.

    1. I LOVE crab legs! We have learned to make them on our BBQ side burner outside or the house smells fishy for days!
      I've never really spent too much time in the mountains, but I am sure I would love it!

  7. I LOVE Southern California! I've only been a few times for work and Chris and I have been thinking about taking a little vacation there in the fall. As for nature and feeling relaxed, I have a love hate relationship with the ocean. Looking at it brings me peace - but when I'm swimming I have a hard time not thinking of a hungry shark circling my legs! :)
