After Christmas we braved the snow covered roads, the crying twins, and the annoying click-click of our sporadically functional turn signal and headed to the coast. After the 12 hour drive and the fast winding up the mountain ( puking child included) we arrived at Isaac's Uncle Darryl's home near Lake Arrowhead in California.
While there we enjoyed some fine Mexican cuisine, thanks to Uncles Darryl's knowledge in that department. We also visited the beach, and the boys had a blast! Eli and daddy ventured out onto a pier and saw seal basking in the sun, while I stayed beach side with the twins who went around grabbing handfuls of sand and trying to stuff it in their mouths. We then enjoyed a stroll down the boardwalk. The day ended with a trip to the largest mall we ever saw in our entire life! It had stores like Gucci, Armani, Fendi, Rolex, Coach, and many other high end places. Needless to say we felt out of place.
We spent the extended weekend getting to know Isaac's extended family ( since this was the first time the boys and I have ever met them). It was nice to relax and enjoy Aunt Kathy's wonderful cooking.
Our stay ended much the way it began, minus the puking child. And homeward we went enjoying In-N-Out burgers, a first for Isaac.
