Aside from the company, my very favorite part was the beach. I don't realize how much I miss it until I'm there.
The sight, the sounds, the smell...Ahhhh. You can't get a better view from a car window. 
Sally lives there so she knew all the best places to go. This was the greatest ever breakfast place! Can you tell by the line at 9:30?
It was very fun and cute on the inside, but best of all was right on the beach where they have tables and chairs waiting.
Waiting for rule breakers.
Nearby view.
Two beach-starved Arizona mom's excited to get in on that view.
Sal, I love this picture- so cute!
Trip made possible by the greatest mom in the world.

Cool patterns.
A beacon of beauty from the freeway.
Pedicures were one of the first items on our agenda.
Shopping: forever one of my favorites. I wrote a paper in Jr. High about shopping being the perfect activity. I had some very compelling arguments. Mainly- "It makes you feel better when you're feeling down." Irrefutable logic.
Eating at "Extraordinary Desserts" which were very much so.
And we did lots more. Including, but not limited to: a movie, more eating out, late night chats, the Christmas version of Cabury mini-eggs, clips of Muppet Show yip-yip aliens, having major flashbacks as we all tried to get ready in front of Sally's bathroom mirror, hugs, tears, and lots of laughter.It was only a day and a half total but you can really fit ALOT into a day when you aren't toting tots around. It was the best ever and much needed. Thank you for being so awesome girls (esp. mom for all you are always doing for us- thoughts, prayers, and love, etc.) Love you.

What a fun trip! You guys should definitely make that a regular thing. Glad you got your beach fix!
Ooh girl's trips are the best!!! Maybe next year we will have to have ours at the beach. That looks fun. It seems like good timing too. I am impressed that you fit that all into a day and a half! Good times!
