Fall Break in California

The fall break from school was around my birthday in October. I took Alex, Aldo and Carsen with me and drove through Las Vegas to Newport Beach, California. Rod couldn't join us until later in the weekend when he flew to Newport from Salt Lake.

In just a few weeks from now we will celebrate our 26th wedding anniversary.

After the beach, we dropped off Rod at the Newport airport so he can fly home while the rest of us drove to Las Vegas for the night. We stayed at the Bellagio.
