I just want to make the disclaimer for the records: The kids are on spring break so I couldn't teach even if I wanted to! I have been starting to feel kinda bad having all this fun this week when most people are working full time still... uh, sorry. But the weather has been beautiful, the sun has been out, and I just passed my first real estate final (with a 93%) so that is deserving of some fun, right?
Kelly and I met up the other day for a day of bike riding in and all around the Newport area. We seriously rode for almost 3 hours around Corona del Mar, Newport and Balboa island. It felt like we were kids again and I have to give a shout out to Kelly who is always down for a fun day of doing just about anything.

Some action shots from the day. Did I mention we got to take the ferry across the island with our bikes? Yeah, never have done that before and let me tell ya, it was fantastic!
The sweet old ladies that took our picture asked us if we were on spring break. We looked at each other and without technically lying said that we were! Ha, now that I am an old 27, any comment that lowers my age rather than raising it is gladly appreciated!
The whole yard of this house was a complete village of an old mining town. There were stores, houses, people, moving parts- couldn't quite make sense of it all and just felt like taking a picture. You may have needed to be there to admire it.

Another fun night of Albertacos and Cherry on Top. At first glance you would never think to stop at this hole-in-the-wall establishment, but once you dig into their amazing carne asada burritos or rolled tacos you realize that fine dining doesn't need to come with an expensive price tag! Thank you Tim and Niccole for helping us discover this place! We kept the birthday celebration going with the Hansens, Johnsons and Julie and Sophia. Thank you so much to all of you!
The ladies: Chrissy, Naomi, Chels, Nic, and Julie
Niccole is mid bite with some yummy yogurt (they were both like that Niccole!) and Kirk and I look like we have acquired a daughter! Little Sophia is Julie's girl, but I'd like to put in an order for one as cute as her!
Kirk is making a Sophie face and I just had to put in this picture because I found it so endearing how much Sophia warmed up to Kirk! She had never met him before this night yet was reaching with arms extended for him to pick her up. Apparently her dad has similar features to Kirk and might have been a little confused, but I just thought it was the cutest thing in the world! When I went to hold her she looked at me for a second or so, then reached back for Kirk! What a doll!
Then there's little Naomi. Sweetest thing in the world. Happy as can be even if it was way past her bedtime. I'm looking forward to celebrating her 1st birthday party this weekend! Gosh, what good times! It's like the fun never ends!

congrats on passing your real estate exam! A 93% is amazing. I also love the bangs.
Hey Chelsea cute pics. I miss San Clemente so bad. I hope to move back some day. We are still in Vegas and will be for at least another 5 years. We are at Boulder and Tropicana. I dont know if you know were that is but its kind of ghetto! Anyways keep in touch.
How FUN! So nice that you still get spring breaks. I love the ferry! Wish I could be there to have some fun with you. I'm planning on coming in June for a week or two so we'll definitely need to get together then. We'll be celebrating Mia's 2nd B-day! Oh P.S. Thanks Kirk for leaving us a comment! It was so fun to hear from you. Zach says hi...
