Well, the littlest "Pike girl" turned 21 last week and this past weekend we all got to celebrate it together. My parents are down in Cali for almost a month to visit us and it's been very fun getting to spend as much time with them as we can. So to celebrate, we all stayed in Dana Point, CA which is this beautiful beach town just south of Laguna Beach. It's not so commercialized, it has white, sandy beaches, and it has cute shops lining the streets to stop into and look at. Here are some of the highlights from the weekend...
Aunt B and Uncle Wayne came down Saturday night for dinner at Hennessey's Fish Bucket- a fun fish n' chips place with a great atmosphere. The drinks were big enough to share between 4 people and the food was awesome!

All together again...it's been since Christmas
Uncle Wayne and Aunt B. Wayne is the proudest darn Texan I have ever met. By the way...did you know true Texas chili has no beans in it? Only meat...
We spent the afternoon Saturday at Strands Beach...it was the perfect beach day! Here's Nina and Patrice.
We took a walk down the beach just to two of us to sneak in some "alone" time.
Dad, Mom, Alla and Ryan getting their tan on...
This family does not do anything without stopping for a coffee. There is a cute coffee house in Dana Point where Jared and I like to go and this time we got to enjoy it with the whole family. We all like different things- Mom, Alla and Jared love their Americanos all fixed up, Ryan and I love a good iced vanilla latte (soy milk for me please), and Dad, Nina, and Patrice go for the granita/blended drinks.
Fun, fun time we had. It really doesn't get any better than being at the beach with your family. I can't think of a better way to spend the weekend. This coming weekend mom and dad are coming to Loma Linda to stay with Jared and I. On the agenda...shopping for the girls, introducing my parents to frozen custard at Therons (soooooo good!), Lake Arrowhead on Saturday and dinner at the Mission Inn in Riverside. Should be a good time!
