Beach Day!

This past weekend was Jared's 10-year high school reunion!   While we didn't feel like forking out the big bucks to go to the big party at the hotel, we did meet up with a good friend who was in town for it.  Serena was a good friend of Jared's in high school, and has since become a good buddy of mine through IM'ing.   It was great to hang out with Serena and take advantage of the fun weather a tthe beach.  We may never have gotten a beach day in with Daddy during the summer, but hey, we got it in in mid-Oct!  Gotta love California!  We started the day with cinnamon rolls from Sweet Jill's on Main Street, and then we headed to the beach for play time!  Gotta love my fearless kids, they would run right into the waves, and right back out.  Neither one wanted to come out of the water.  It was great cause it wasn't crowded at all, so we were able to park ourselves right at the edge of the water and play for a couple of hours before we headed to Ruby's for lunch.  Afterwards, we drove Serena back to her parent's house where she is staying while here(she lives in Colorado with her husband) and met up with a couple of other friends before we left to go on our way, and they went to the official reunion.  And boy, were we glad we didn't shell out the money for the tickets (it would've cost us almost $200 for both of us to go), Jared talked to a friend who helped plan it and we found out that less than 50 people had RSVP'ed!  We had a great time that day, and can't wait till Serena can come visit us again!
