Capture the Moment- June Part III

 California Trip 2022

We left the Houston heat for a beautiful week in California! We stayed in Dana Point at Brian's cousin Mike's beach house. Brian's parents were able to join us. We had the best time! We are so grateful for their generosity.

Donuts before our flight.

We went straight down to the beach!
Sunshine, palm trees, ocean waves, and matching family swimsuits!! :)
Universal Studios was our one big outing while we were there. Jackson and I made custom Harry Potter shirts for our trip.
Jalin, Telia, and Corton came with us and showed us around. We headed to Hogsmeade first!
3 Broomsticks

They picked out their wands!
ButterBeer
Jurassic World ride was a favorite at the park! 

We may have got a little wet!

The details of Hogwarts were incredible! 

Light show before we left

We closed the park down!
It truly was a great day!! I lived my best life for sure!

Bike rides along the beach were a fav of mine!
Headed to dinner 


We took the trolley to the pier for pizza and ice cream!

Jackson tried surfing a few times. 
Nothing better than the beautiful views of the ocean. 






We hung out at the beach house with family and celebrated Father's Day.

Laguna Beach
I remembered this candy store from 12 years ago and had to go back!






Boogie boarding




We spent a day at the lake with Brian's cousin Laurie and her family.
The drive through the mountains was beautiful. 



Another fun day!

Brian tried wake surfing. 
South Swell ice cream- dip your own bar and pick your toppings, so yummy!

Good bye California!
