And...... we're back.

It's great to be back. Never mind the ten pounds of cat litter to scoop, the 726 emails to sort through, or all the bags to unpack.... I'm too busy catching up with the Internet (oh, how I have missed you!). First off, let me just say how honored and excited I was to be featured over at The Blogger's Concierge while I was away! Yay for new friends!

Okay, here are a few snapshots of our week in good ol' California (if you see an older Chinese lady in the pictures, that's my grandma!).

First off, we ate: (once I stopped gagging from decapitating the shrimp, they were actually quite delicious!)

Max and Matt brave the freezing water and the huge waves:

Then we went to Disneyland:

Matt and Rebekah were scared on all the rides:

We went to an observatory next to the Hollywood hills:

We took a free ride in this helium balloon and saw a great view of Orange County:

We went to the beach again:

We ate lots of ice cream:

All in all, we had a great time... and I think I only gained about twenty pounds from all the food grandma wanted us to eat! If you want more pictures, you can always check out the ones Max thought were blog-worthy!
