We took the kids and Grandma Donna and headed down to visit family in Orange, California (a suburb of Los Angeles) in mid-December. It was a great time spent with Julie's sister, Carol, and her family. We all went to Newport Beach to take in the ocean. We immediately spotted dolphins as we pulled up to park. There was a sea lion, a wet baby, and a wet grandma. Everyone had a blast. Thanks to the LaBounty's for being such great hosts. We hope it won't be another seven years before we make it down for another visit.
