We decided to do a little weekend getaway to California. Our kids hadn't been to Disneyland, and we thought it was good timing to take them with naps and no little baby... They did great on the drive over. It's always so hard to be in the car that long, but they did awesome! We got to our hotel around 11:00 at night. The kids were so excited to be in a new place they had to check everything out.
After a decent nights rest, we decided to check out what there was to do in Orange County. They have a cute science museum in Santa Ana that was fun to explore and do. There were dinosaur bones to touch and see, a huge long neck dinosaur with the inside hollowed out so you can check out how it's body works from the inside. Of course, Dan found the grosses thing in there...
For dinner, we drove to the Huntington pier and walked down the the Ruby's restaurant at the end of the pier. The wind was blowing super hard and we were freezing halfway down the pier. We had an amazing view of the ocean from our table on the 2nd floor of the restaurant. It was beautiful to watch the sunset.
Allie still prefers to ride in the stroller instead of walking (I guess who wouldn't), but she always races Drew to the stroller and hops in it first. Drew usually is ecstatic that he doesn't have to ride and can roam free. But sometimes this is our solution when two kids want a ride, and we only grab our single stroller... What a good big sister.
Dan found the dinosaur poop. You can push a button and watch it go through the intestines. Weird huh!
Drew didn't want to sit still for any pictures. He wanted to press the buttons to make the dinosaur behind them make noises and move it's head.
This is our view as we ate our dinner at Ruby's.
Our sweet girl. She LOVES flowers - any kind. I think she smelled all the fragrance out of that carnation at our table by the end of her dinner.
