Last weekend Mike and I took a little getaway to Santa Cruz with our good friends Miles and Chelsey. Santa Cruz is about a 2 1/2 hour drive depending on the traffic, and its the warmest beach near Sacramento. We arrived at about 10:30pm on Saturday night, dropped our stuff off at Miles' sister's house (which is about a mile from the beach), purchased some firewood and junk food, and claimed our fire pit on the beach. We had a good time relaxing, lighting fireworks, eating junk food, dancing to downloaded music on our cell phones, dipping our toes into the cold water, and chatting it up next to the fire until 2 a.m. On Sunday we woke up early to find a good spot on the beach along the Santa Cruz boardwalk and spent the entire day soaking up the sun, people watching (one of our favorite pastimes), throwing the Frisbee, playing volleyball.....well everyone but me because it hurts my arms. I know I am such a wimp. For lunch we ate ice cream at this fabulous little diner on the pier and later on had pizza and Pizza My Heart for dinner.
Doing what we do best.
Thanks Miles and Chels for showing us a great time in Santa Cruz!

Spencer claims thats Pizza My Heart is the best pizza ever.... Where I claim Craigo's as the best. In your honest opinion, which is better???
ps. love you, miss you, want to visit soon.
That sounds like so much fun!! That's cool that you guys were able to do that! ;)
I want to go more places in Cali. I've only been to San Diego. Looks like you guys had a fun time! But nothing like good 'ol Colorado :)
I'm so happy we got to vaca with you guys, even if it was for one night. I have a feeling we will probably start doing that more often. The Heidorn's heart the McCabe's.
how. fun. i am so jealous! i neeed the beach in my life right now!!! lol. it looks like you guys are having soo much fun! keep tht memory makin' up girl~ okay- the book, while my sister sleeps, is actually really sad and hard to read bu hard to put down. if you ever feel like just being a wimpy girl and crying to a good book it's the one. a girl- her sister is a pro runner- sister has heart attack- life support- turning off machines. i just read it because i heard the author was good...the story didn't captivate. but as soon as i got into the first few chapters i was hooked! love ya girl!
okay... so you made me look again! i could have sworn i posted something! i'll be hitting up the boardwalk in a couple weeks! can't wait!
