Laguna Beach

We have started a small tradition each time we go to Newport. One day during the week we spend an afternoon in Laguna. After a quick bite to eat at "Nick's" (highly recommend it), we headed for the beach. Macie loved the water until her feet got wet, then all she wanted to do was play on the swings. There is no difference between the swings at the beach and the ones next to our house. But that makes no difference to a 2 yr old. :-).

Newport 2010

Every year or so Wende's family gets together for a family vacation. Several times we have gone to Newport Beach which is where we went this year. It was a great week of trips to Disneyland, the beach and even a few days of doing nothing and taking it easy.

Disneyland

Of course no Holt trip to So Cal would be complete without a trip to Disneyland. We spent 2 days there and the girls loved it. Macie was too impatient to wait in line to meet any of the characters, but loved the rides. We had a great time and were all definitely worn out at the end of each day.

Choo Choo

Macie's new interest is trains (and wagons). Everytime we see a train she says "All aboard, Choo Choo!". From the train at the mall to Thomas the Train on TV it all about trains. Riding in her new wagon is just as fun. Actually I don't know who likes the wagon rides more, Macie or Cambri.
