LOL...just wanted to share some pics and experiences of a lovely week down in beautiful and CALM Valencia with my daughters, SILs, and grandsons. It was a great week! I got home Tuesday evening.
I LOVE Valencia....the community takes such care in carefully tending beautiful flowers on the street corners, and there are many nice pathways to walk and stroll carriages with little children.

It was Tyler's 9th birthday and both my daughters and all the cousins had a great time. We took them to MB2 in Sylmar to let them drive go-karts. They had a blast. The kids under 10 years old are carefully monitored on computer by the staff, they can't go over 20 mph.
Lots of fun on the beach.
Had a great lunch on a grassy area overlooking the beach near Santa Barbara. Padaro Beach Grill....I had the grilled red snapper tacos. Their website isn't the greatest, but here it is....Padaro Beach Grill
Kay......we drove right through your beautiful Santa Paula on the 126 freeway on the way to Santa Barbara....I waved hi to you and Steve! Had 4 very active little boys in the van with us. LOL
My SIL Steven just got promoted to Captain at the L.A. County Fire Department, and that involves an hour commute from their home to a new fire department in Malibu. It's not a huge glamorous station overlooking the ocean by any means, but rather a smaller station tucked into the hills of Malibu. He loves it. When we went to visit him, the engineer took the boys on a little drive in the engine. They always love that!
Being in the hills, they get some beautiful visitors outside the back fence.
Casey...this one is for you. Daughter and I saw this Lamborghini SUV in front of the movie theater in Calabasas when we took the kids to see the new Lion King. Thought of you when I saw that beauty. I had never seen one before. LOL
