"90 degrees under these palm trees..."

A free nights stay in beautiful Whittier, California if you can name the band who used the title of this blog in one of their songs! Ok, I'll give you a clue - "one time...two times!" Anybody? Unless you were a fan of The Fugees in the mid-to-late nineties, you would never get it, so nobody wins! So why such a random title; well, because it was blazing hot in SoCal this past weekend. It didn't hit 90, but it got close, which called for a trip to the beach. These pictures were taken at Newport Beach, one of our favorite places to play in the sand and take in a beautiful sunset!

Elsie and Carson on the playground

Elsie will be 4 this May


Carson's first experience with sand, needless to say, she loved it and ate it...a lot of it!


They both loved being at the beach, Elsie collected a lot of shells


We went with our good friends, Pat and Teri. We ate at BJ's and then enjoyed a walk around Balboa Island. Balboa bars...yum!

Matt and Elsie rode the merry-go-round together, Matt got in trouble for riding the horse, of course!

Here is a video of Carson eating sand, thankfully we still have yet to see it come out the other end!
