The Second Week of Vacation...






The Monday after Christmas, Daniel, the boys and I drove to Laguna Beach for a few days.  We have had a wonderful time here and are VERY grateful for my father's generosity,  The first day we were here, we visited with my dad, took a trip to Trader Joe's, and settled in for the night.  The second day, my oldest friend (from the 5th grade) came to visit us and we shared a delicious lunch at Las Brias, a local restaurant.  It was fun because when I was young and living with my dad, my mother took me there several times...so it was somewhat nostalgic spending time with my childhood friend and eating at a place I use to frequent as a child.  After my girlfriend and her son left, we came home, took naps, made dinner, and just enjoyed the evening.  The next two days were spent pretty much the same.  I was able to run, we found a new park for L to play in, we took several walks on the beach, and simply enjoyed the beauty of the area and our time as a family.  I am just SO, SO grateful for the opportunity to share these last few days with the three people who are dearest to me.  It is a gift from God!
