Cali baby!

This past weekend Nic and I went to California with our friends Jeff and CharLee. We went to check out the area that we are going to be living this summer.

We went and picked up Jeff and CharLee before we left and Nic and Jeff were dressed exactly the same. They both had gray t-shirts on, the exact same sweats, and the exact same flip-flops. It was hilarious. They insist that they didn't plan it. Haha!


It was such a fun little getaway! We went to California Adventure Park, walked the boardwalk in Venice Beach and saw all the crazies there, went to Malibu, drove in traffic in L.A., and just relaxed. It was a perfect weekend getaway. The drive takes about 10 hours and that was probably the worst part of the whole thing. The traffic in L.A. definately didn't help, but from what I hear, it's something I'm going to have to get used too. After seeing the area this weekend, we are so excited that we are going to be living there for the summer. It's going to be an exciting adventure for us!





When we were in Venice, this crazy, homeless guy puts on shows for money. He picked Nic out of the audience. Nic was disgusted, and I was worried cause who knows what that guy was going to do, but was a good sport about it.
