We left on Tuesday and came back on Sunday, so it was a decent amount of time to be gone. Let me tell you, I am SO glad we went to Southern California when we did. The weather was AMAZING!!!! Like, I am ready to pack up and move there anytime!!! I fell in love with the place RIGHT AWAY!!!
We rented a convertible and it was the BEST THING EVER!!! Driving all over San Diego and Orange County with the top down was AWESOME!! Perfect weather to drive around such a beautiful place! The views are spectacular!!
The view from the car leaving our Hotel
We didn't get to the hotel until Tuesday night, so we just had some dinner and did a little gambling (shocking, I know) before getting some sleep.
On Wednesday, we just did a little relaxing at the pool and then got ready to go to dinner at a little Italian place in La Jolla. OMG!!!! LA JOLLA!!! Love it!!! It is SO cute!!! I am SO glad we drove up to this little town.
The pool at Harrah's was really pretty! I was quite impressed!
The beach in La Jolla
Thursday, we took another road trip to Irvine so that Jason could take some cupcakes to a new client they are bringing on. I was SO excited when I found out that Irvine was in Orange County!! UUUUUHHHH, hello my favorite Housewives!!!! Of course I didn't see any of them but I was sure hoping to at the mall! Oh well, I did see a lot of the places they film at. After we left the client's office, we drove up to Laguna Beach and had lunch at a Las Brisas on the beach. The food wasn't the best, but it wasn't bad either, but the view was worth going to alone. Oh, and the margaritas were REALLY good!!!
This was our view while having lunch in Laguna Beach!
Friday we checked out of the hotel and drove back into San Diego to meet up with Jason's Cousin, Anne. She invited us to lunch with her Company. They provide lunch to their employees in Fridays to talk about the week and go over goals. It was pretty nice to see how another person's Company is ran since I really only have experience with Jason's family business. (Is there an eye rolling emoticon on this thing??? I would insert it here if so!) They could take some pointers from his Aunt and Uncle for sure, but they won't!! You all should check out their Company here.......http://www.environmentallights.com/. If you need LED lights, this is your place!! They are seriously the smartest people I have ever met! Jason's Uncle knew LED lights were the way of the future before LED lights were even talked about in the lighting world.
So, after lunch we went to his Anne and Greg's house. Their house is simply beautiful. It is on a an acre and a half on a hill and just SO pretty!!! A girl could get used to this lifestyle for sure!!! Did I mention that you can sit outside and not get eaten alive by bugs??? How great is that??? I think the Hubby got super excited when I said I wanted to move to Cali!!
This was one of the patios at his Aunt and Uncle's house. I could sit out there forever!!
The lemons from one of their lemon trees. They are HUGE!!
I am so glad that I got to spent some time getting to know Jason's Aunt and her Family. They are such wonderful people and I really wish we could have spent more time with them. This was also the one of the first times since our Honeymoon that Jason wasn't obsessed with work stuff, so he said it was so relaxing. I was SO SHOCKED!! He is ALWAYS obsessing with work stuff on ALL our trips and it makes me completely CRAZY!! This trip definitely goes down as one of my favorite trips we have taken! Can't wait to go back with our Little Man!!!
Until next time!
