This year we went to San Luis Obispo to be with Paul's family and stayed with his brother Ryan, Aunt Tammy and Cousins Trey and Colton. Riley LOVES visiting "Paradise Ranch". He loves the horses, all the dogs and especially all the time he gets to play with Trey (who is 3 years old). Here's a glimpse of our Thanksgiving Weekend....

Playing in the fort with Riley, Trey and ColtonBuddies at Thanksgiving Dinner at Grammy and Ricks who made the best dinner with all the fixings! Thank you so much for a wonderful night!Wrestling with Paul... I'm sure Paul has a few bruises from letting these boys jump on him all night! They would jump off the table and onto Paul or the floor. They couldn't get enough of him!

This was bound to happen at some point :) 

On Saturday night we all went to dinner at the Madonna Inn. This hotel/restaurant is so fun! Riley loved  all the Christmas decorations.  Riding bikes with Trey and his friend DannyOn our last day, Ryan took us to Spooners Cove. It was absolutely beautiful!

My Favorite Meal is Breakfast!

I love the Muffins at the Beach House in Dana Point

And I love to snuggle in the chairs when I get full

I love the Beach Comber in Laguna Beach, and especially the tunnel (where I like to yell and practice my "echo") that we take through Crystal Cove to get to the restaurant

I Love breakfast on the beach (any beach) while Daddy goes surfing I  LOVE pancakes, especially from the Beach House in Laguna Beach I love a quesadilla breakfast at Olamendis in Capo Beach! And I love breakfast on an Airplane!
