Santa Monica Pier

 
Posted by Picasa

During our wonderful spring break we went to the Santa Monica Pier. There is so much to do down there that every time I go down I swear we come across something new that we didn't see the last time. There is a restaurant called BubbaGump and outside sits Forrest's bench with the shoes and everything, so we couldn't resist. Also on the podium where you give your name are all these license plates, we again, couldn't resist. My older sister actually has the one on the right as her wallpaper on her phone because that phrase comes out of her mouth every 15min. HAHA!

A few more Easter Pics

Just a few examples of what a great big brother Brandon is, they are so in love!



Easter 2010

Easter this year was extra special. As I said before, my family, was in town for their spring break which happened to be over Easter. My Mom loves every holiday especially if it includes kids, so we decided to let mom & dad have a special grandparents/grandkids day. We woke up in the morning and did our usual breakfast and Easter basket hunting that the Easter Bunny hid the night before. Once we were finished with that all of the big kids (my brothers, my sister, my niece, hopeful sister-in-law, my husband, & I) all left to spend the day at Six Flags. While we were at Six Flags my parents finished the traditional Easter festivities. They put on an egg hunt. They each got their very own hunt, of course, each age appropriate! They absolutely loved it! After the egg hunt they packed a picnic lunch and went to the beach. All in all it was a great day and Brandon still talks about ittoday! Thanks mom & dad! You guys are the best!

Malibu Coastline

The beach right across the street from the Neptune Net is a huge surf spot. On any given day there is usually at least 20 surfers out there. Here are a few shots of how pretty it can be. Also in one of the pictures in the distance you can see a parachute from a wind surfer! It looks like a lot of fun but really hard!

Spring Break 2010

Since I have been living in the LA area my family has decided to spend their spring break vacations down here so they can get a break from the WA winter. I absolutely love it and we always have a great time.

We have made it a tradition to stop at the famous "Neptune Net Cafe" for lunch and an after flight adult beverage(You may have seen this in numerous movies). This place is only 20min down the road from my house and just north of Malibu so it is very convenient when taking trips to the airport.
