California Vacation

Later in July, we took a week and visited Nana in Thousand Oaks. I spent my time doing some running in the foothills of the Santa Monica Mountains, enjoying some time with family and friends at the beach and by the pool, and changing out all of the receptacles and switches in Nana's house.


Later, we took a short trip to LegoLand for some classic Southern California theme park fun...



Lastly, on the way back to Thousand Oaks, we stopped in Long Beach to visit cousin Kari and her beau, John. They both work at the Long Beach Aquarium and gave us all wonderful "backstage passes" by allowing the kids to feed various sea creatures and meet some of the birds up close. We were also able to see all of the innerworkings of the aquarium that usually only employees are exposed to. Thanks Kari and John!
