Back in Cali

So fortunately Tom has a lot of business trips out in Cali so that we can travel back there a lot.  We really both miss living there, but there is also a lot to say for AZ....no smog, NO TRAFFIC, no high prices on everything, and we have the best sunrises and sunsets...and the coolest rain storms I have ever seen!  This past time in CA we were quite busy, and had lots of fun along the way!

Daddy and my baby K being so cute! We stayed in the Hilton and had a great time playing, working out, and swimming.  This is my favorite part about vacation, I love going to a hotel! My dad used to always make sure that when we stayed in hotels(which was a lot because we always had some new adventure to be on) that he would find one with a pool and we would entertain ourselved for hours!

My beach boy catching a wave.  This is what makes a trip for Tom...the beauty, the serenity, and just some good old Hawaiia-style longboard surfing.

Thankfully I got a chance to get out too! Those of you who know me well know that I am addicted to running and working out. :)  I used to run a lot in college and before I had Kea. My favorite was running along the beach when we lived in Huntington.  Lately I stick to 3-5 miles, but I was proud of this particular run which was 6 miles down to the beach and back with some nice hills. 

Kealani being "pretty" for the camera.  While Daddy was working we took a trip down to the pool and had so much fun.  Kea is like mommy and Daddy in that she can't get enough of the water.

We were able to visit quite a few people and we even made it out to see GG (Tom's Grandma).  She took us to the most beautiful restaurant on the golf course. We enjoyed the delicious food and the beautiful scenery and water falls. Thanks GG, Love you!!  We also had a great time staying with our second family, the Walborns.  Kea loved visiting Debbie and John's new puppy Nala. We also got to stay with Tom's dad, Rex and Emilie and had so much fun and lots of good food like always!!! Thanks everyone, we love you!!!!
