New Brighton Beach

Jess has all but given up on blogging, so here's a small update:

We did my families annual trip to Santa Cruz, and although the WHOLE family wasn't there, we still had a fun time!

Our friends, Ashley and Devin, were able to come down for a couple nights, so it was fun to have them there!

The only bummer was that it rained Saturday night while we were at the boardwalk so we were a little miserable and wet! 

Other than that, we hung out at the beach, and just hung out!

I went for our annual bike ride and learned nothing from last year and went out too hard and ended up leaving remnants of my breakfast on the side of the road.

 Devin was lovin' the Clown Face

 This was the most clothed Braden was all weekend! haha

Being awesome

My Uncle Al, his kids and Brad and I made a little Clifford.

We just couldn't resist!

Got wooped up by Alan and Jacob in football

B. was very unsure about the scary ghost ride

Giant Dipper

Until next year...

Ice Ice Baby

Last night Mike and I decided to do something out of our norm for our date night so we drove to Sacramento for the last weekend of outdoor ice skating. It was fun but we both agreed the skates did not smell very pleasant and they didn't feel very pleasant on our feet either!

But with all the bad we got to spend a few moments together just the two of us holding hands and talking! Sometimes that's all you need to make a fantastic date night!

We snapped a few photos of our adventure and we then got some cheesecake from the Cheesecake Factory. It was delicious and that was the first time I've ever actually tried cheesecake from the Cheesecake Factory.

I just love date night with Mike! 

I would do anything as long as he was by my side!

Thanks for the fun night babe! Love you!
