Santa Cruz Getaway, Day One







We took our sweet time getting out of the house this morning after a late night in the Munoz household. We went to the drive-in the night before and stayed for both movies. The girls both passed out, but the boys made it through two movies (yes, Spencer!). Really, I don't know if that's a skill I should be boasting about!

Santa Cruz was a little cool and windy today. Our poor beach umbrella can attest to that as it found itself left in a garbage can after it snapped on us. We made the most of the cold weather as you find you get a bit numb to it after awhile. At one point Spencer tried talking to me, but his teeth just wouldn't stop chattering. Its (almost) impossible to complain on vacation...it just feels so wrong!

After we spent some time at the beach, we went to our hotel. It wasn't fancy, but we paid for the view of the ocean. With only eight rooms, it felt more like a bed and breakfast. Alfonso and I closed out the night on the patio. It was so nice to talk without any, "Mom, excuse me. Mom, mom!!".
