Last week, Jeff's grandma passed away so we headed to California for the funeral. It was a nice service and it was fun to see some of Jeff's extended family that we hadn't seen in a while. After that we stayed a few extra days and went to the beach. We had a really fun time. We found a 4 star hotel on Priceline.com for $45 a night right off the beach. Brycen had been asking to go to the beach for a long time but of course once we got there he was terrified of the water and only wanted to play in the sand. Leah loved it and kept trying to go out into the water as far as she could.
After that we rode the Auto Ferry to Balboa Island. It's this really cool boat that you drive your car on and it takes you across the water to the island.
Our view from the boat.
Then we drove by Jeff's childhood home in Costa Mesa. He hadn't been back since he moved when he was 9 years old. Then we realized he only lived 10 minutes from Disneyland so we drove down there and went to DownTown Disney and had lunch. It was a very busy, but fun trip and we hope to go back soon.

Looks like fun! Well, not the funeral part, but the beach and the good deal on the hotel?! SWEET!
How nice to be able to get out of town and have a mini vacation!
