The Trip Part 3 Corona California

We drove our last stretch to get to Corona. It was nice to unpack and stay more than a day somewhere. We played everyday with Grandma and Grandpa! We spent a day at the beach by Balboa Island, swam at Mission Viejo Lake, played outside in the wading pool, ran around with cousins, explored a mosaic sculpture park in San Diego, toured the Mormon Battalion visitor center, and returned to Atlantic park.

Trevor and I took a little trip together to Santa Barbara without kids for Trevor's birthday. He played Sandpiper, a beautiful golf course on the coast (I rode along). We also played four rounds of golf at the Twin Lakes nine hole course Trevor first learned to golf on with his Grandpa Fred. We played 36 holes for his 34th birthday. Grandma Andrea had a wonderful birthday dinner and celebration planned for the evening we came home.

The boys loved running around with their cousins. We were sad to say good-by.

I got to spend an afternoon with Brit, one of my best friends from BYU
