monterey

Today we got back from a wonderful and very relaxing week away. Chris' parents rented a house for a few nights in Monterey and it couldn't have been more enjoyable. The weather was sunny and our location was amazing. :)

The house was right across from the water. Each morning the kids ate their breakfast in front of the window.

The first day we went to the Monterey Aquarium.

I love this pic!

The beach across the street was filled with rocks, rather than sand. This actually turned out great since it was too cold to swim anyway. The kids LOVED climbing on the rocks, which we did many times. :)

We ate at a few delicious restaurants, however it was also really nice to wake up and just relax around the house, making breakfast at home each morning.

 I walked into the living room one afternoon and looked out onto the porch to this. Sooo sweet.

A big highlight for Chris was getting to visit Pebble Beach golf course. This is a, "never will be able to golf but amazing to visit" golf course (it is SUPER pricey).

Our last night after dinner:

We decided to stay an extra day once we got home to Chris' parents. Kendall did a lot of baking with grandma. She was also excited to find a spare pacifier and needed convincing to part with it later on. :)

Overall it was SUCH a great trip. I can't begin to tell you how not ready Chris and I are to get back to real life.... :)
