Holiday Fun In California




















We just had a fabulous three-day weekend in sunny California. The weather was unbelievably beautiful, the activities packed with adventure, and the company fabulous. We stayed at the Hyatt Regency in Irvine which was close to Disneyland and the beach. Friday we spent the day and a good deal of the evening at Disneyland. We love Disneyland at Christmas time with all of its extra holiday decorations and festivities. We saw Jana Burleson (a friend of Natalie's) dance in the Electric Parade. Jana also was able to get us three free tickets and three discounted tickets into the park, so Disneyland became very, very affordable. Saturday we spent the day on the beach making a huge sand castle, walking, eating, and finally enjoying the yacht Christmas parade on the pennisula between Balboa Pier and Balboa Island. Sunday we enjoyed the hotel. Everyone got in the pool and spa except me. I soaked in the spa and was lazy. It was a fantastic trip. This was definitely a great way to start off my two-week winter break from school.

Tons of cute pictures! We need to plan a date to show you about the Cricut when you get back into town.

Kim and I were looking at your photos from the Disneyland trip and we did stay at the same hotel when we went. What are the odds? Looks like your family had so much fun.
