One Last Hurrah

before school starts on Monday. We got to spend a lazy 10 days in sunny Southern California with family. It was heaven.

We spent the first few days at Newport Beach. Lots of time was spent at the pool.

an intentionally awkward brothers photo:


We got to spend our days with these people:



During our trip Mckay also delighted me by going from this:

to this: much better.

One day we made our way down to the farmers market in San Clemente. Me and Mckay went there on our honeymoon so it was fun to go back a day after our third anniversary :)


lots of fun things to see and yummy things to taste


lots of looking through beautiful custom made kaleidoscopes.

lots of photo taking.

and lots of entertainment provided by miss caroline.


lots of sunsets at the beach were a must.



this is what happens on vacation: no hair done, no make up, its a glorious thing.


racing waves
The beach made husband happy. He just couldnt get enough.

along with lounging at the pool and playing in the waves we definitely took advantage of the many restaurants that we had never tried.
I have to mention some of the restaurants that filled the Rytting family bellies. oh my did we eat well on this trip! some of our favorites:
Pedros Tacos in San Clemente- killer fish tacos and fried chicken tacos
Rudy's Taco Shop in Carlsbad- probably the most amazing carne asada we have ever had. boys loved the California Burrito, we went back a third time
Rosana's Italian in Carlsbad- between the six of us we probably ordered half the menu, and everything was homemade and so tasty
Thanks for the memories California, you treated us well.
